Family Fitness Checklist

Family Fitness Checklist

1) Incorporate Fit Life 5 Principles.  5 days per week workout/activity (at least 30 minutes)  5 meals per day eating with a  healthy conscience.  Live the FIT LIFE!!!

2) Go play with the kids.  Sports are always great to play with kids just make sure it stays fun.  Don't be overcritical or correct too much during play time.  Sometimes a simple game like Simon Says, Freeze Tag, or Hide-and-Go Seek can be more fun than other organized sports.  like nike says,JUST DO IT!!!

3) Parents: Don't talk about it, Be about it!!!   We all know kids don't do what we say, but they will do what we do.  They will mimic your actions.  They talk like you, they look like you, eventually they will act like you, so be a great example.  If you exercise they are more likely to exercise.  If you eat with a healthy conscience, they are also more likely to follow. Yes its true.

4) Get a Fitness Coach.  Hire a fitness coach to train the family as a group.  Coaches bring unique ideas about fun and fitness which enables the family to be more receptive to fitness.  Contact me now for more info on Family Fitness Coaching.

5) Sign up for a 5k or organized bike ride.   Families usually have more fun at these events because of the atmosphere. If you have smaller kids, look for the one mile fun run.  Set attainable goals as a family to accomplish.

Your coach Always,

Coach Brian
