Being a stay-at-home often means that your family is working under a pretty strict budget that does not always allow for gym memberships and childcare (for those that have younger tykes). However, that does not mean that you are restricted to the confines of your home never to see another workout again. There are many resources available to you both on line and throughout the city.
- Workout DVD's - Best thing about it is you can borrow them for FREE from any public library.
- Mapmywalk.com - This site lets you map out a walking/running path using Google Maps. It shows you how many miles your path is, and you also have access to dozens of user entered paths.
- Parks - You can't hardly sneeze in this city without running into a park, and many of them have paved walking paths or walking trails. That means you can get a good walk or jog in for you, and then let your child(ren) explore and play around the park.
- Stroller Strides - A workout playgroup that brings mothers together in the pursuit of fitness. This one is not free, but a group that is growing in popularity across the city and therefore warrants mention.
- Sparkpeople.com - This website not only helps you make smarter meal choices, but offers a large selection of workouts that you can easily do from your own home. Many do nott require anything at all except you, and the rest only require a towel, medicine ball, and/or dumbbells.
With a little time and the use of the above resources you can easily put together a great weekly routine to keep you or get you, in shape.
