Alright, with 4th of July weekend behind us you may be trying to sort out what or how to triage the kids’ camps and daily activities. Here's an Active Summer Fit Bucket List for the family that would not only help you spend quality time with the kids but also keep them off electronics. Let's get your kids moving.
Let’s get your kids moving and lessen their blue screen electronic time by leading by example with an active lifestyle without going to the gym. Your kids will be proud of you! These are some easy ways to spend time with your family without spending more money on summer camps--perfect for weekends!

Family Summer Fit Bucket List:
1. Water balloon fight or tag: traditional 1v1 or kids vs. parents. Try using colored balloons to add a theme.
2. Steal The Water Balloon/Bacon: Traditional Steal The Bacon but kid 1/parent vs. kid 2/parent.
3. Musical Fit Ball: Using an inflatable beach ball or balance ball write an exercise and reps on each colored panel. Then begin Musical Ball game like you would musical chairs. When the music stops the person with the ball shouts what exercise the colored panel his or her right thumb is on.
4. Newspaper Relay: Make 2 teams or more. Then mark Start and Turnaround Mark line. Using a newspaper sheet for each team begin the relay. Be sure to place prizes (sorbet, treats, Amazon gift cards, or other items your kids might be surprised to get or rarely treat themselves to) for the funniest, slowest, most cheerful one. We like using a newspaper for each.
5. Clipboard Basketball: using a regular office clipboard, laundry basket or bucket, and ping pong balls. Partner up. One partner ties the clipboard around their waist using a strong piece of string or ribbon. The other partner is the shooter trying to bounce the balls off the clipboard into the basket. Get creative (fastest to, farthest to, eyes closed or 1-legged). And of course have fun prize.

HOW TO GET RID OF THE EXTRA WEIGHT AFTER THE AGE OF 50?- YOUR PERSONAL ROADMAP TO GET IT DONE.
HOW TO GET RID OF THE EXTRA WEIGHT AFTER THE AGE OF 50?- YOUR PERSONAL ROADMAP TO GET IT DONE.
- Carbs- Eat only as a fuel. That means, if you are going to have a long busy trip to the beach or round of golf, then carbs are in.
- Protein- I call this the healing food. Given that protein supports most of the membranes and soft tissues in your body, I consider protein a key component as we age and our bodies need “rejuvenation”.
- Fat- Oh the good ‘ol fat. I call this “The Needed Evil of nutrition”. You see, you need fat to metabolize other nutrients but not that much. So keep it minimal and as needed.
- Water- By now you know the importance of water so I will not go into details. But one thing about water-- nothing does the body as good as fresh clean water. So suck it up and sip up or else you will end up sucking in your gut.
