Hot (Sweaty) Mamas: Five Secrets to Life as a Fit Mom

It gets 5 stars for getting me off the couch and training for my first 5 k! Anyone who knows me can tell you what an incredible feat that is. It's perfect for those of us who, in our minivans or mom-mobiles, drive by those joggers in their matching outfits and spandex and feel intimidated.

This is an incredible book; inspiring and entertaining without being pushy and judgmental.

As a (previously) non exercising mother I liked how it read. At some points it almost felt like they were in my living room talking about my piles of laundry stacking up and my kids running around. At one point they compared squeezing exercise into your day to squeezing that last box of waffles into the freezer after doing groceries. Who can't relate to that?

It encourages you to " treat your body as well as you treat your kids" .

It's a good, easy read and has some great advice.

The mom to mom quotes also gives you a sense of camaraderie. Ladies, we are not in this alone!!!!

I like the authors' practical approach to being a Fit Mom. The book includes suggestions for fitting workouts into family life as well as tips for handling spouses who may or may not support your athletic endeavors. I like the Mom2Mom sections where real moms 'fess up to some of the crazy things they've done in the name of post-natal exercise. (anyone else used your baby as a dumbell?)

The authors acknowledge the fact that some advice is just tired. "Work out while the baby sleeps" assumes that your baby will always sleep! Instead, the book offers suggestions for exercising with the baby and guilt-free motivation for leaving baby at home while you run, bike, swim etc.

This is an ok book if you are a new mom or a new mom to exercise. It is a definite motivator to get out the door and begin. I found it not advanced enough, not that I am an advanced exerciser or advanced mom! But great for someone just stating out.
