7 exercises to keep the family fit

1. Zumba, let’s dance!

Is there anything more fun than dancing? It doesn’t matter if you are good or bad at it, if you decide to visit our Villasol campsite we have very lively monitors who will get you all dancing and make sure you have a great time.

2. Fitness activities

Sharing moments with your children is really important, that’s why doing some physical activity is a good way to get closer to them. Get creative and come up with something fun!

Some ideas could be obstacle courses, skipping rope, playing hide and seek, doing a treasure hunt… Who said physical exercise was boring?

3. Riding a bicycle

Without a doubt, going for a bike ride is one of the best things to do with children and keep the family in shape. There are many benefits of cycling, it is a good sport to encourage and promote physical exercise without the little ones even realising it.

And if your children don’t know how to ride yet, it’s a good time to teach them and create good times together. Remember, riding a bike is never forgotten!

4. Skating as a family

Another alternative is skating. The complicity in this type of activity is fundamental, which is why it is ideal for the whole family. This type of exercise requires a lot of balance and concentration. If you are already expert skaters, you can do races, circuits or relays. Healthy competition is a good way to encourage sport.

Whether cycling or skating, it is essential to be well protected, don’t forget this and lead by example.

5. Take walks together

Yes, something as simple as walking. Leading a healthy and active life starts with giving up sedentary habits such as going everywhere by car and changing that routine by starting to take a daily walk. Going for walks as a family will allow you to explore the countryside and discover new places.

If you have a pet, taking it for a walk together is a good way to encourage this type of activity, you can do it more as a family than ever and have a good time together. Walking has many health benefits and is a good way to keep fit without making too much effort.

6. Swimming

What child doesn’t like to spend hours and hours in the water? Join them and plan a series of games. You can use a ball, throw an object and try to find it while diving, have a family race… The important thing is to have a good time with the little ones.

If, on the other hand, you prefer to relax while they play, at the Villasol campsite we have a magnificent team of entertainers who have created a programme of fun activities designed for them, as well as encouraging team activities, so that the children have fun learning and making new friends.

7. Practice yoga

Even if you think it is not a good exercise to practice with children, yoga has many benefits for the little ones. Children need to relax too. Ending the day with some yoga is a good exercise routine for beginners that will help them to unwind.

It is necessary to adapt these exercises to the youngest members of the household, a good idea could be to think of it as making animal figures. I’m sure you will have a great time!

Have you seen all the alternatives to start a family exercise routine and get fit? There’s no excuse!

Doing some sport is not complicated, simply adapt some of these activities to your day to day life, it will not only help you to feel fit, but will also help you to have fun with your family.
