There’s nothing quite like a good work out. You’d think having kids and running around after them (which should totally count as a workout!) would make you feel as great as when you leave the gym. Except, it doesn't.

Whether you’re working or looking after your kids at home, it can be so difficult trying to find the time to work out. Do you work out before the kids wake up? But then you have to get up even earlier...

While the kids are at school? But there's never any time. After school? Too tired! Not to worry! We’ve got a way to do your normal everyday routine AND have a work out.

David Lloyd Clubs have created a 10-minute work out that can be done during the school run! What’s not to love?

School gate squats

You can use dumbbells, your children’s lunch box or a can of beans

    Adding weights to your squats makes your body work harder.

    Term time triceps dips

      Playground pull ups

      For this one you’ll need a bar/climbing frame

        Want to make the move easier? Bend your knees so the movement is smaller.
