Porter spent most of today’s workout climbing on me, stealing my equipment, and generally making himself part of the workout. And I pray he keeps doing all of those things.
Years ago I worked out because I wanted to look a certain way.
These days, a huge part of why I do it is because of my boys.
I want them to grow up seeing women lift heavy things.
I want to be healthy so I can play and keep up at every age.
I want them to see that moms deserve time to take care of themselves.
I want them to learn that movement is something we do because our bodies are amazing, not because we’ve earned it or need to punish ourselves.
I want fitness to feel normal. Not a phase or a challenge or something you start every January. Just part of being a healthy family.
They’re always watching, so I’ll keep showing up.
