Grumpy, grumpy baby today resulted in the need to integrate him into the workout. It wasn't the most killer workout, but it was better than nothing. And as creative as I could get after six hours of kid-management.
5 rounds:
25 squats with Tim (18 lbs)
20 push-ups, face-to-Tim's-belly (from the knees, for safety)
20 sit-ups on the ball
Finished with 10 Tim-raises (like a shoulder press, only with a narrower grip, hands under his armpits...) It was actually pretty hard after all those push-ups.
From the childcare perspective, this workout was highly successful -- Tim loved the squats and laughed uproariously as he grabbed my hair during the push-ups. (The sit-ups were more of a spectator sport and he freaked out before the last set, so I held him on my belly as best I could -- off the ball -- and reduced the reps to 10.)
I should also mention that I walked about forty-eight* kilometers with him in the stroller today, to keep him calm.
* Slight exaggeration.
