Move More Log.

Worked out in the house today.

12 degrees below zero - jogging outside - No Thank You !

So, I decided to do some step-ups on my foam aerobic step. My 13 month old found this very interesting and exciting. I did at least 50 of the 150 step ups I did holding him and the others dodging him stepping up next to me, behind me, in front of me. I figure he gave me an extra core workout. I used 5 pound hand weights for 50 of them. You don't think 5 pounds is much per arm, but do 50 of these step ups while doing bicep curls with these weights and they sure feel heavy fast !

Then, I did 100 sit-up crunches with my back on the floor and my knees bent on my couch. My 13 month old loved this even better. He kept running up and pulling up my shirt and poking my belly button and saying "ing! ong!" (he doesn't say the d part yet of "ding dong"). Then, after doing that about a dozen times, he decided to run up to me and jump on me in a tackle like he does with his daddy when they are wrestling on the floor.

I was cracking up the whole time! What a fantastic workout buddy I have !!!
