If Your Child Won't Exercise: Here's the One Thing That Actually Works
Description
Fitness expert Brent Bishop shares one of the most practical and immediately usable insights for parents of resistant kids: movement has to be interest-driven. And if your child won't leave the screen, the answer isn't to fight the screen, it's to bring what's on the screen into the real world.
From mom-and-baby fitness programs that build bonding and modeling from day one, to cardboard workout cards made with a 5-year-old, to backyard obstacle courses inspired by your kid's favourite character. Brent breaks down how creative, play-based movement in the early years builds the motor skills, core strength, and active habits that last a lifetime.
90% of fitness is mental. That applies to your kids, too. This episode gives you the tools to work with their mind, not against it.
