StrollerStrides

I tried out the StrollerStrides workout program this morning. StrollerStrides is a workout program led by a trainer. The cool thing about it is that you bring baby along with you and push them through the park. There are several stops along the way where we did lunges, squats, pushups, jumping jacks, running drills, crunches, and resistance band. When I first heard about StrollerStrides I thought it would be a bunch of mommies strolling thru the park and chatting, once we started up I realized I was in for a good workout. It was AAAAWWSOME. Just what I needed. Since Ryder is going to be 1, I realize that the "You just had a baby" number is not going to work for me anymore and I need to get my butt in gear and into shape. Ryder was a perfect boy the whole time, he took in the scenery and watched me get my butt kicked. One part he was sitting in his stroller just clapping, the trainer said "what a good support system you have" All the other mommies were really nice and friendly!
After the workouts on Friday they always have a little activity. Today we made SPOOKY HANDS. We used a plastic glove, put candy corn in for fingernails, filled the rest with popcorn, and put a spider ring on the finger.
I forgot my camera, so this is snapped with my phone.
I signed up for more classes, and can't wait to start up a routine.
