Off to the Gym We Go!

My husband loves to tell me that he's going to the gym, in the morning, but when he gets home he's too tired. Our teenage son has no problems coming up with a reason not to go. I'm no angel either, so yesterday, I decided we would go as a group.

When we arrived, signed in and stretched out, my son and I decided to spend our twenty minutes of cardio, on the bikes and my husband headed towards the Ellipical machine. I really got my heart rate up! It was much more challenging then the treadmill. I was so into 'Dr. Phil' that I didn't realize that our time was up.

We then headed to the weight machines. My husband acted as our own personal trainer, making sure we kept the correct form, pace and breathing. I really challenged myself yesterday and even had fun.

As I looked around, I noticed that there were other families working out together. What a great way to keep your family fit and still enjoy some time together. So no more excuses, we're off to the gym...together.
