TIP OF THE WEEK

Top 10 healthy family fitness activities
Fitness activities for families to share

• Family mealtimes.
For many families, sit-down meals together have become a thing of the past, with each family member doing their own thing and then bolting down a convenience meal if time allows. However, the simple act of just sitting down together and enjoying a proper, healthy meal is an excellent family-friendly activity. Making time for a family meal is likely to result in better quality nutrition, as the food is more likely to be home-cooked, and can provide you with a good opportunity to relax and de-stress.

• Outdoor activities.
Whether it’s a playing in the garden, a game of ‘tag’ in the local park or some fun on the swings and slides, simple outdoor games and activities are great for quality family time and exercise. The children will love it and you’ll also benefit from the getting your heart rate a little higher. Make sure all the family members can get involved so that everyone has the chance to exercise.

• Day trips.
Any event that involves everyone getting up and about will contribute to the family’s health and fitness. Visiting the zoo, going to a dporting event or exploring a theme park is something that can be enjoyed by all the family and will also involve expending plenty of calories en route!

Just get up and go! It doesn’t have to be hell to be healthy and using some smart combinations of activities such as the ones above means that you’ll neither neglect your family nor your fitness. Of course everyone is busy and yes, everyone wants a piece of you, but there aren’t many more important things than maintaining your health and fitness and spending some time with your family, so go and do it
