Yesterday morning I was doing the P90X legs and back tape. My 6 year old daughter came out and was watching me. When I started doing wall squats she looked at me and said "that doesn't look hard". I said "come do it". She came over and leaned up against the wall and said "this is easy." I said "you're not doing it right" She got bored and left.

Then as I'm doing Groucho Walk my 7 year old son comes in and starts doing it but he's standing up almost straight (basically just walking back and forth) and says "why is this hard?" I said "you're not doing it right and you haven't been doing other stuff for a half hour before you did this." He gave me a "whatever look" and asked what was for breakfast.

Freakin kids!

    LOL! My 6 year old agreed to do plyo with me the other day. She made it 3/4 way through the warmup and got tired and quit. :tongue:

    my kids love to "exercise" with me which i think means get in the way. lol When they were really little we would go to the library and rent richard simmons videos, the kids thought they were so silly and goofy but we did lots of laughing while we worked out together.

    This morning was Kenpo X and my daughter "joined in" on a couple of the kick combinations. I about broke my neck trying not to trip over her.

    My kids (and my husband...) try to crawl under and around me during the yoga DVD.

    But they tried Core Synergistics and the AbRipperX workouts and couldn't make it :) So I felt pretty awesome!

    My grown sons (who call hubs and me "Old Man" and "Old Woman") have yet to finish a single P90X workout with us. And both of them went through ARMY BASIC TRAINING earlier this year!

    My little girls, ages 2 and 5 (and their new puppy) joined us for our workout last night. I think they lasted longer than the boys!

    My daughter always likes to get in the way when I do Zumba. She claims its her favorite, and begs me to put the DVD on. Then after about 5 minutes she quits on me talking about she tired.....SMH

    It's not uncommon for my 20 month son to sit on my chest or stomach while I'm doing cruntches =) Hardest crunches ever.
