When you're a parent, you're busy. I thought I was busy when I was single, but nothing compares to being a parent!

We have two little girls (4 months and 2 1/2). It seems like we clean all day, and the house is still a mess! We go all day, and we only cross off a few things on our list!

Anyway, if you are a parent, I'm sure you understand.

With everything you have going on with your kids, work, church, community service, etc. it's hard to find time to exercise. Here are three tips to help you exercise when you are a parent.

1- Schedule time each day in your planner, phone, calendar, etc. that is dedicated time for you to work out.

2- Make sure your kids are asleep, being watched by someone or doing something that will keep them busy so you won't have any interruptions.

3- Don't put other things in front of your exercise time. Even if you have 10 minutes a day, you can still get a good workout in.
