I go 2-4 times a week, depending on my schedule, how I feel, if H is sick, travel, etc. I usually take an exercise class after work one night and run before she gets up in the morning.

Well this week none due to having surgery, but before surgery I was working out 4-5 times a week at home. I would come home start dinner, let LO1 watch a show, and I would to my 40 minute workout while LO2 took her early evening nap. If I time it perfectly I can be about done before both of them want me

@nana87: I just went back to the gym when my kids were 6 and 3 - I tried doing work outs at home and they just weren't for me.

I have been going for a year now - I go Sunday morning, Wed at 7pm and then Friday at 4:15 (pick up kids after)

4-6 days a week. I have a gym at work and WFH some of the time, so I usually fit it in over lunchtime.

I go to the gym as soon as we put the kids in bed (only on my DH's early nights), or at 5am before the kids get up and I have to go into work. I try to make it 6-7 days a week but I am working towards a pretty big goal at the moment. When I am not training, I will go 4 times a week or so. I make fitness a really big priority right now because after having kids, I really lost a part of myself, so I am doing this for me

3x a week after I drop of ds1 at preschool while my mom watches ds2. Will try to keep this up when I go back to work in a few weeks. (Wah)

Twice a week I walk/ jog for 40 minutes. I need to do more and incorporate strength.

I try to run at least 4-6 times a week (or go to the gym if it's raining). I either wake up early and run before work , or go right after work. In the evenings (after DS is asleep), I do core strength exercises. If I have energy, I'll go to the gym for a barre or Zumba class once a week (though, I've been slacking on that since the school year has rolled in).

Pretty consistently 5x/week. My DH and have staggered schedules so I work early/do pre-school pickup, he works late/does drop-off. I get up crazy early (like way before LO gets up) so I can go to the gym before my work day starts at 7:30am. Days I have to drop off for some reason, there's a gym at my office, so I go during lunch. I also try to run with her in the jogging stroller on the weekends (DH goes with her in the mornings).

I do homework outs 4 to 5 times a week. Usually during nap times but sometimes I do it while they're awake (when that happens its usually short). I'm lucky in that my current schedule allows for that. And I rearranged my priorities. If I only fold laundry once a week so be it, Im a better mom/wife/person with a little self care

@JoJoGirl: us too. I used to stress about it but I'm happier this way (emtionally anyway, I do prefer to have a clean house but whatever). But living out if the laundry basket means that when I do get to fold it, it only takes a few minutes because it's all dirty again! lol

I'm halfway through my second week of shooting for 6 times a week, and I think I've finally found a time / plan that works for me. I workout right after putting the kids to bed, and do a 30 minute 21-day fix workout DVD. They are great because there is a different workout every day of the week, and they are really only 30 minutes.

I've found that if I sit down on the couch after putting the kids in bed, my motivation to workout is immediately gone, so I don't let myself sit until I'm done! I try to make myself remember 30 minutes is actually really short in the scheme of things.

I'm lucky that there is a great running track (~4km) between my work and my son's daycare, so 3 times a week I leave work right at the bell and go straight there in my running clothes (makes it harder to bail on it when I change at work) and do either one or two laps depending on how I'm feeling that day. They have a little station with steps, pull up bars and other workout equipment so if I'm really motivated I do some strength training as well.

I'm currently going 4 x during the week, and 1 x day on the weekend. I'm at home with LO so no childcare, but we use the gym crèche for up to 90 mins per morning. It is great except for when sickness hits and I can't send LO into the crèche!

1-3 times a week. I was doing yoga during my lunch break at work but switched to a class at night recently. I also work out while my SO takes my toddler to swimming lessons. I normally walk on weekends and take my daughter in the stroller but it's inconsistent.
