Exercise and Weight Loss Resources for Women

  



Everyone knows that our children are our first priority, but we often forget to look after ourselves as much as we should.

It’s quite important to have pretty good physical fitness as a parent, especially when you’re trying to keep up with the needs of a baby or toddler. There never seems to be enough time in the day and often parents are not very good at making time for themselves. However, making time for exercise will be of benefit to the whole family. It’s something that you can do together, you’ll have more energy for your children, you will feel better about yourself, you’ll sleep better and that’s just a few of the benefits.

The benefits of exercise

Exercise has many benefits including:

• Increased cardiovascular fitness
• Increased muscle tone
• Increased bone density
• Increased base metabolism
• Increased energy levels
• Increased self confidence
• Decrease in body fat
• Decreased blood pressure
• And a lowering of many health risks.

In simple terms, you’ll feel better and you’ll be able to keep up with your children. You will also be setting a great example for the kids and hopefully get them away from the TV screen.
