It’s not very funny when we get out into the yard and start on that do-it-yourself project and are short of breath and the knees hurt and the back aches and it’s not even lunch time yet!  You know what you should have done months ago to get yourself in some kind of condition to be able to work out in the sun for a few hours at a time.  Now it’s too late and you have things to do!

You will want to make sure that you are well hydrated and take it easy out there.  You don’t want to over do and tax yourself beyond what you are capable of.  In fact, you might want to use this as a starting point to get yourself and your kids into a routine to get a little exercise because the truth is; family fitness is up to you! You are passing on habits to your children and if you don’t like the way you feel or how your body is currently working then you want to change it sooner than later.  We never think our kids are really watching us but statistics tell us otherwise.  You can do it and the kids can too!
