Arm Dips

Sometimes a playground is just too small for a mom to play on. That's okay! While your kids are running up the ladder to rush down the slide, you can find a nearby bench and use the weight of your own body to do arm dips!

While your kids play on the playground, sit on a bench or a chair with your hands wrapped around lip of bench. Move your body forward until your bottom is off of the bench, and dropped down slightly so your arms are supporting your body weight. With your feet flat against the ground and your knees slightly bent, extend your arms so they lift your body. Then slowly bend your arms to lower your body again. Repeat this movement. For extra resistance, have your baby or toddler sit on your lap.
