Keeping Fit As A Family
from Food For Thought
We all know how important exercise is and the benefits it offers but how many of us are actually working out? The truth is most of us and families in particular are not very active, in fact, the World Health Organisation states that in the UK, we are now 20% less active than we used to be in the 1960s and should we see this trend continue we will be 35% less active by 2030. Currently, parents are working longer hours than before, while kids are playing less sport in schools but spending more time on screens and using digital equipment, given this the estimate in the UK is that one in three children are now overweight or obese. Carly Rowena, fitness blogger, personal trainer and mum of one has joined me on the podcast to help identify ways to achieve a better balance, increase activity levels and how to keep fit as a family.
