For 2019 we have an amazing invitation, so you can burn even more calories and have lots of fun with awesome benefits: Family Training!
Exercise has an extensive list of benefits, not only for your body, but also for your mind and general well-being.
Now for the family, the list can be even longer. Sharing active time with your loved ones strengthens family bonds, adds lots of fun to your exercise routine, can help you burn a few extra calories and even contribute to your child’s education.
Sports and exercise psychologist Jocelyn Penna explains: "Although downtime is important, many people spend far too much time inactive, so when families exercise together they gain the combined benefits of being together, growing together and encouraging each other to be active."
Families who work out together develop emotion management skills, a healthy sense of competition, communication, teamwork, self-esteem, among many other skills.
If you’re busy parents, another great benefit of sharing physical activity with your kids is that you can tick off two things at once: a fun after-school activity for the kids while working on a healthy, fit body.
Activities that would be awesome for family time:
Bike riding, dancing, artistic swimming, aerial fitness,
obstacle racing, football.
If you’re a parent, here are a few interesting benefits of working out with your kids:
Fact:
The American Heart Association recommends that kids and teens (ages 6-17) get at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity every day.
Which means: That by keeping up to this you’ll have a great chance of burning a high amount of calories, sharing quality time and working on that hot-bod (With a beautiful reason to not miss your workout!)
Family Training benefits for the children:
Helps maintain a healthy body weight: Leaving behind childhood obesity issues.
Develops motor skills: For the proper development/use of hands, legs, coordination.
