Craft something artsy. If your kids are more artistic than athletic, indulge their creative side with a pottery, painting or drama class. Even though they hardly qualify as aerobic activity, these pastimes certainly burn more calories than playing the role of couch potato (not to mention the enrichment factor). Contact your local parks and recreation department for classes in your area.

Are you getting enough fiber? Muscle fiber, that is. If you only use heavy weights in your workout, you’re not utilizing the whole length of the muscle. Make sure you vary your workouts over time to include moderate weights to ensure you develop the whole muscle and improve flexibility, range of motion, speed, and agility. |
