The Benefits To Exercising With Your Baby

It can certainly be difficult to get back into a regular workout routine after having a baby or whilst managing a toddler.

Sleep deprivation is a big part of this! The idea of going to the gym to workout can just be totally out of the question- the simplest thing to do is to start walking and build up from there as after all exercising with your baby can have big benefits for you both!

Here are some of the benefits:

Fitting in fitness
While many new moms find it difficult to set aside an hour a day for a workout nearly every new mom spends an hour a day interacting with her baby.

If you feel like exercises is taking away from your baby you are totally wrong… the positive interaction you will have during the workout will mean you have fun together whilst enjoying quality time!

Bonding time
Spending that Buggy Beat class with your baby while you work out- this helps solidify your bond. Hold your baby whilst squatting, lay them on the mat during push ups— the baby is getting the good energy of you doing something positive for yourself while you focus on them at the same time.

Forming healthy habits for the whole family
When you focus on fitness, unsurprisingly, you are healthier and in better physical condition. When your children see you focusing on fitness and are a part of your daily fitness routine, they also learn the importance of incorporating exercise into daily life.

We hope that is enough of an excuse for you to get out there and join your local Buggy Beat class!
