Get Moving with Your Mate





When you start a fitness routine with your partner, you'll reap health and relationship benefits. Here are 3 ways to get moving with your mate!
Go Back to Basics:
Put an after dinner walk with your husband on your calendar for three evenings each week. It can be a good time to check in with each other too, or even make it a family walk. Schedule active time for the weekends as well,e ven if it's playing in the yard with your kids.
Be Together BUT Separate:
At the gym, are you more into the treadmill and your mate is more into the bike? That is NOT a problem! There are benefits to working out independently but at the same time. You each get to do the type of fitness you enjoy most but going together still keeps you accountable and gives you the motivational push to stick with your routine.
Join a Group Fitness Class:
Many men aren't into taking a group exercise class, BUT most gyms these days now have more athletic classes such as CrossFit. Your mate might not be as averse to that idea. Think less choreography and more push-ups. You can also test the waters by streaming a class on YouTube!
Fitness really is contagious! If one person in a couple amps up his or her exercise regimen the other is more likely to follow suit. 70% is the approximate percentage of people who started exercising on a regular basis when they worked out with a romantic partner. According to a study.

Apple Ginger Fizz for Fall

  The kids deserve a special drink for the fall besides apple cider. This is a great fall mocktail with a beautiful flavor combination. Not just for the kiddos. This makes 1 drink What  you'll need: 3 oz still apple cider 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice 6 mint leaves 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar Pinch powdered cinnamon 3 oz ginger ale Create: Place apple cider, lime juice, cinnamon, apple cider vinegar and a few ice cubes into a cocktail shaker. If you don't have a shaker, anything with a tight lid will work, such as a mason jar or drink bottle. Clap the mint together in your hands to release the scent, and add to the shaker. Shake for about 20-30 seconds until ingredients are combined. Pour into an ice filled glass and top with ginger ale. Stir gently, garnish with mint, dried citrus or a cinnamon stick, and serve.
