Poppy working out at her gym |
I also try to work out to get back in shape. Slowly, but surely I'm getting my body back the way I want it. Mostly it is shorter or longer walks with Poppy in the stroller, but since three months I also go to Gerdahallen (my Swedish Equinox, but not as flashy) and do the Parent/Baby-class twice a week. It is mostly workout for the moms (but two dads show up almost every week now), and the babies are on the floor playing with a toy. Some parts of the hour we carry the baby or use them as a weight. Favorite part for all the small people is when we "dance" closer together in the middle so they can see each other. The song for this part is Gangnam Style and everyone has a happy smile on their face, including the parents. About 50 parents show up twice/week for this class - pretty cool and a good workout in a safe way without heavy weights, jumps or running.
Yesterday we had a snowstorm in Skåne, but that didn't stop me and Poppy. I put her in the BabyBjörn and off we went. It is only a 7 minute walk to the gym so bad weather is not an excuse. Besides, I must be a little crazy because I love the snow, the cold, how pretty the landscape turns out and how quiet it becomes when the snow is falling down all around you.
