training with children

I was weight training today in my gym and was 3/4 the way through when my 1 year old daughter fell off a bench and hit her head. She was then so upset that she would not let me put her down. I could off stopped my work out there and then and given up, but instead i continued while holding her instead of weights. Because i had no break and never put her down it was a really good work out. So what i am trying to say is every mum knows how hard it can be to make time to tran and things always happen with the children, like injuring themselves. But get creativeand come up with ideas so you dont miss a workout. Involving the children in your workout is a fantastic idea, ex: mums and bubs yoga or do what i do, i complete a set then my other daughter who is two and a half will complete a set too, (or so she thinks she is doing it, I help her to bend or lift a empty dumbell)She loves it and it sets such an important message. Playing sport with your children is also fun, swimming or jogging. My husband and i take the girls in the trailer for a run then when we are close to home, the eldest gets out and runs with us, she absolutely loves it, plus she gets some exercise too. So until next time.
