StrollerFit has moved to the Zoo on Wednesdays!  We'll be back at Sedgwick County Park on Wednesdays starting in August, but during June and July, come to the zoo and workout with your kids and then walk around and enjoy the animals afterwards! 

Meet in the Cargill Learning Center (to the right of the main entrance) at 9am, check in inside, and we'll warm up in the courtyard!  You do need a zoo membership, or pay $4 for each person over 3 years old to get in.  However, there are many moms who have memberships with guest passes on them and it's first come, first served to get in free on someone else's guest pass!

Today was our first workout at the zoo and it was a hot, muggy one!  But that didn't seem to stop anyone from coming out.  There were 23 moms and 31 kids who showed up today!  Awesome!



See ya next Wednesday at the Zoo!!

This is our first full week with outside classes!!!   Monday's at 9:00am, we meet at College Hill Park (304 Circle Dr) right by the pool!

The weather was perfect this morning, no wind, 65 degrees, and sunny.   During class all the mom's ran/jog/walked (whatever your fitness level) 2.25 miles! Good job!!!





Tonya manages to find hills no matter where we are!  The kids stayed in the strollers while Tonya kept them entertained with bubbles and the moms ran hills and did power squats!




A few biceps curls while the moms all sang 'Happy Birthday' to a StrollerFit kid who had just turned 4!


Then it was onto tricep dips


And push-ups!  All fitness levels - some doing push-ups on their toes, some on their knees, and some modifying by using the wall!


Traveling lunges through the park!




Tonya leading the group in our new song of the month while doing back lunges!  Singing while exercising builds cardiovascular endurance and keeps the kids entertained while the stroller isn't moving!


Finally, after the work out was finished, it was play time for the kids!







See everybody next Monday at College Hill Park!!!

The 2010 StrollerFit Easter Egg Hunt was this last weekend and it was so much fun! Thank you to everyone who came out with your families and made this event so successful!

Enjoy the following pictures and video of the event!

I love being around all of my fit mommy's in StrollerFit, mommymuscle sculpt, restore the core and Power restore the core!!! They are such a blessing! Seriously if I didn't have class everyday I think I would go crazy! It is nice to get out of the house with my 20 month old daughter and see other moms and exercise!

Exercise makes me feel better and even though there are days that I don't feel like exercising (like this morning since my daughter woke me up at 5:30am) I am so glad I did when I am done! And it makes my day better! Did you know that exercise helps you not be as tired and it helps relieve STRESS???!!! Sometimes it just makes me sad that not everyone in America understands that and that is why the obesity rate is 66%!!! I wonder what kind of world my daughter will grow up in since 20% of four year olds are already obesity!

That is why I do what I do! Help moms feel better about themselves and for their kids to see how fun exercise can be! Let's get America's obesity rage down so our kids don't have to grow up in a world where it is 90%!!!

Wichita StrollerFit was in the paper today!!! I have been waiting over a year for them to come out! They did a great job! Everyone go and pick up a newspaper or go to www.kansas.com and go to Life and then Fit for Kids! There is a video and a place where you can make a comment! It was fun having the reporter and camera man come out! They did great!

Also, pick up a Health Matters Magazine! I have an article and pictures in there about pre/postnatal exercising! You can view it on your computer at www.healthmattersmag.com and look at the Oct./Nov. issue!
