Workout Times Three

Linsey Driskill

Isn’t it so easy to make sure our kids’ needs are met, but to overlook our own? I love running outside, but when my triplets were little, I spent most of my time running after them instead! Thankfully, I discovered a 30-minute intense and invigorating workout that fit with our schedule: P90X3. I didn’t have to go to the gym, but could do the exercises in my family room during their naptime or while they watched a show. Once I committed to the three-month schedule, not only did it make me feel healthier and more alive, but it made me a better mom.

Around five years old, my kids even started jumping in for parts of the workout which was entertaining. Having my son yell, “Great job, Mom – you can do it!” was pretty inspiring! And now I turn the tables to cheer you on: YOU can do it! Let’s not only take care of our kids, but ourselves too!
