I have an almost 2 year old and 16 weeks with #2. Fortunately he naps 1-1.5 hours in the afternoon and that gives me enough time for a daily workout

If it sounds too good to be true.... Keep us posted. I'm very skeptical about stuff like this.

Yeah I know Im guessing its because the focus is so straight and food water.....etc....is all mapped out for you to do. I think if I can stay to it any workout would be fine

Welcome- I remember when my kids were babies and we were told to "sleep when they sleep," ha ha that never happens. Its the only time you can get other things done

Happy thursday/friday. 60 hours? that's insane.

I don't mind it really, The extra bit of money is nice to have at the moment. Happy Friday!

[mash74]

ahh...the days of naps. Enjoy it while you can, those naps will go away someday..lol

[HotGeek]

This is exactly..why you can vent here. I think this is fairly normal for al of us..but you still get your workout in..and that dedication

Glad I found this group! I am married with 2 kids and my family is the joy of my life. I always want to spend as much time with them as possible; therefore, I train at 4:30 AM while they sleep. With work, kids, and the time I want to spend with my husband I am in bed around 11:30 PM. No complaints here. I am truly blessed and living the dream!

As a husband and dad of 2, I am looking to connect with people that are married or have kids and understand the challenges that go along with that and are trying to workout. I'm curious if there are any good forums, or groups to be associated with for advice and tips etc. A buddy program would be great to keep motivated and learn how to keep the whole family healthy and active.

Married and have a 1 year old baby girl and a boy on.the way

Do you find that it is working for you?

I know what you mean. I used to work crazy overtime when I was younger and the extra money was much needed. I wouldn't mind putting in overtime now for extra cash but we're not offered overtime anymore.

[suesse]

Thanks suesse! Have a great weekend.

You're welcome mash. did you have a good birthday? Short weekend for me, I worked friday night and slept through almost all of saturday.

Hey suesse, yes it was nice, thanks. We just hung around the house and made dinner and stuff. How do you like working nights? My wife is a nurse and trying to get back on nights. I couldn't do it. Have a nice Sunday.

[jeffie7]

It's that time of month again. I'm getting more workouts in the bedroom than in the gym. All fun in games until it turns into work

Turned into work 10 months ago.

Here's hoping for month 11

Hi mash. Sounds like you had a nice pleasant evening.
I love working nights, it is the only shift I will work. I've never liked day shift. The last day shift I worked was almost 22 years ago. I hope your wife eases back into it without difficulty.
Hope your sunday and everyone else's is a good one.

Good luck jeffie. when it becomes a task, it sure isn't fun anymore.

[bigfish18q]

Good luck jeffie. when it becomes a task, it sure isn't fun anymore.

It's funny how it works really.. when you're not trying it happens in about 2 minutes.. and when you're trying it seems like it's impossible. That uterus is one cheeky bastard!

[jeffie7]

Wish me luck guys, I'm going in.

[bigfish18q]

Wish me luck guys, I'm going in.

I would suggest to quit trying and that's when it will happen. 5 of my 7 were from lack of trying. ooops. lol.

[jeffie7]

Glad I could give you a chuckle.

After posting that I walked back into the bedroom and my wife was laying on the bed and had that, its time, look on her face.

Perfoming under pressure...I hated that the most. Labor laws, lol. It'll pay off so to speak.

Ha, same here. I've had to try hard at most things in life to succeed...making babies..not so much

Best of luck jeffie, it will happen and you'll love being a dad

[nmechelke]

Do you find that it is working for you?

Have not started it yet. Thought if I'm going to do it i would make sureim done with my current living and then start.

[ejolguin]

So Does anyone use groups to actually push themselves or share stats, workouts etc? PS the mobile app for bodybuilding sucks.

Just saying hello great posts .... Dad/husband here of two and wonderful wife . Hope to compete one day

Welcome! You truly are blessed. How old are your children?

My daughter is 14 and sometimes lifts weights with me (usually on the weekends - if I miss the morning, she and I will sometimes lift together in the afternoon). She and I also love to play basketball. My son is 9; he and I love to ride bikes and play tennis together.

I met my husband 20 years ago while playing tennis. The first time he saw me, I was in a sweaty t-shirt and a ball cap so he has known from the start that I love sports and activity. It is a good thing too because he is a sports fanatic also. The four of us love to play anything with a ball and we do so together whenever we can. It is so good for our individual health and our family as a whole.
