exercising with baby

Hi all

My son is 12 months old and I would like to exercise more with him. We walk and are busy but need more. I am looking at things I can try to get in my comunity. I have heard of baby yoga (not in my town yet) but what else is there? I dont want to exercise and put him in care I want to get fit with him. I am an unfit (exercise wise) women, overwheight but am on the brink of training my self as there is nothing here of that type. Am lazy but for my son will give it a go. What do you all do?

It sounds basic but walking is great - he can enjoy watching the world go by as you pump those calves. You can even job if you have the appropriate kind of pram. The other thing is - don't be afraid to put your child into creche at the local gym or swimming pool. You're only stone's throw away if needed, after all. Exercise is so important - for the mind and body you'll have a match happier Mum and baby.

I am not scared of putting him in a creche just looking for options where he can join in and we have interaction time. I heard of 1 type where baby was used as a weight and put under you while you did push ups. Something like that. just brainstorming.
