Actions are Louder than Words




Here's Alexa, Amanda and Eric's daughter. One day she stopped playing and said, "I have to go to my workout now." Before her mom knew it Alexa had emerged from her room in her bathing suit and sneakers with the kid friendly iPod and asked for something she could, "jump up on, and then step down from." Alexa had watched her mom, Amanda do box jumps at CFP and it stuck.

Our children tend to follow in our footsteps. They're intrigued by what their parents are doing, and when they have the chance to watch you, they will often mimic your actions. So in an effort to keep our newest generation healthy and active, show your children what you are capable of and they will likely follow in your footsteps.

Pam, will you post the painstorm workout? So I can know what I'm missing when I don't show up?

Jay,

Push up, then rotate to your left, touch your left hand to your right foot. Push up, rotate to your right, touch your right hand to your left foot.

Make sense?

Pam,

If you rotate to your right, wouldn't your left hand come off the ground & touch your right foot? That's what I did...

4(ugh)as rx'd. Pullups on the rings.
