The Shred-PSF
Mr. Serious and I started The 30 Day Shred this week.
The first two days, we were so sore, it was hard to hold out munchkin or even walk. By day three, we were feeling better.
It has become our nightly routine. We get together every night and do our Shred.
Wednesday, day 5, he had Bible Study, so we had to “get our Shred on” before a certain someone went to bed.
So, she joined us.
She was a really trooper.
It was so cute to watch her, too. This was the only chance I had to take a picture…you really don’t get a break during the workout.
She did her version of jumping jacks and jump rope and was even trying to take our weights from us (we finally convinced her two plastic animals were good weights).
Even the sit-ups weren’t a challenge for her. It was almost like she’s done them before.
She did the first half before she got bored and did a puzzle.
It was a fun way for us to show her the importance of exercising and taking care of yourself. And, we also showed her that it’s important that Mommy and Daddy take the time to exercise together, too.
My hubby and I started this a while ago, but dropped out. Your post makes me want to make him start it with me again!
Very funny!
We don't even let our kids play the Wii Fit at the same time we do. My ego is fragile enough as it is.
Good for you and obviously being such a great example with exercise…I want to try shredding. But honestly, it scares me. I'm a wuss.
Aww she's so cute! 🙂
Ok- I'm absolutely doing this! Once the incisions heal, I'll be shredding along with you!
My husband and I started P90X this week! (only my husband insists we do it at 5:30am!) I think it's amazing how it brings us closer!! We are also doing Financial Peace… we have a lot in common!! 🙂 Keep at it and good luck!!
I've been hearing so much about this. Is this a video or Wii? Perhaps I should look into it. 😉
That picture is so cute. 🙂
That is great! I think it is so important for our children to see us working out. Making it a family affair is even better.
Way to go!
I've never even heard of Shred. I obviously need to be exercising more. Good for you and fun to get the kids involved. I need to do that. Thanks for the reminder!
Way to go! Did ya do a little extra for me? I think I lack commitment…. I was working out faithfully for 2 weeks and well I've fallen off the wagon……….
I want to do this but I don't want to get up at the butt crack of dawn to do it…no other time.
i sooo love this.
for you guys. sooo not for me. i am truly not cool enough.
What a cutie, and way to go on your shred! I need to begin a workout, and so it has encouraged me. Thanks!
We need a video of her 🙂
I haven't heard of Shred, but you've peeked my curiosity. I will look into this when I drop this baby and need to drop some weight.
It's great that you are being a healthy and fit role model for your daughters.
That's awesome!! My kids (all 3) attempted to do a tape with me once. I ended up with a bloody nose when mt two year old kicked me in the face. I took it as a sign never to use that tape again.
Cute!
I don't think I've ever done the Shred more than 2 days in a row! LOL I suck.
I'm sure having a little "exerciser" with you made it a lot more fun! 🙂 Way to go though for getting in shape, trying to keep your body healthy, etc.! 🙂
My daughter will try to exercise too when I workout at home, though she mostly finds things that have to be done that minute and turns the tv off.
That is so cute!
Haha, too cute!! Good for you for starting good habits early!
GOOD JOB!! And I think it's great that hubby is doing it with you. Mine sits on the couch and watches if I haven't done it by the end of the day.
I've got 4 more days to go until my 30 is over. I can't believe I've made it this far. Good luck!!
so cute! i love that she did it with you!
Plastic animals for weights? soon she'll ask for the real ones 🙂
Always interesting to see how they learn, by watching.
That is awesome that your Husband does it with you.. I just asked mine and he said "no"..lol. I am going to start again on Monday! Love the picture of your daughter.. so cute!
Pretty sure she could out Shred me at this point. Jillian has been screaming at me to take her back out of her dvd box. ah ha ha
That is so adorable! My daughter likes to do the same thing when I do my exercise tapes. LOL
Is it a bad thing when upon looking out our window one day, my daughter says "mommy, why are those people running?" LOL! I had to actually explain what exercise was and why people do it…..yikes. Thankfully Spring is coming here and we can get out an be less lazy!
Way to do your shred! Can't wait to hear the results!
Jack and Melody like doing the shred with me too. Jumping Jacks are Jack's favorite and Melody likes Jumping Melodies. 😛
So cute!
I need to mention this to Ryan. Maybe he will start working out with me. It can be like a mini date night every night. 🙂
