two kids and exercise

It might be a stupid question, but what does SAH and WOH stand for?

Currently SAH. When DD was a baby, I would put her in a stroller and walk
around the subdivision (one circuit around was 3 miles) or put her in the
burley and bike around the subdivision twice. Now, DD is in school and with
DS, I put him in the stroller and walk. It's a popular way of getting
exercise where I live.

For weight-training, I lift and set down DS (24 lbs).

Work 22 hours a week. Run five miles a day on an elliptical machine.
Have five kids (-:

I joined the YMCA and I keep to a routine. I also own an elliptical
machine at home that I do when i cannot get to teh Y. I like the gym
experience better as it is not so boring.
At home, I pop in a video or a CD while exercising.
I also have a bench for doing 200 sit-ups a day
and do weights at the gym.
For me, it was a matter of deciding tahte xercise was something
I could not compromise on.

Stay-At-Home, Work Out of the Home (There is also WAH -- Work At Home)

Does WOH mean work away from home? I walk for a half hour at lunch
at work. I also work out with weights three times a week and either my
husband watches our daughter (19 months) or I keep an eye on her (I
use dumbbells, so I can catch her if I need to). I also take her and
the dog on a walk a few times a week.

My dd#3 who is a horse judge and works some weekends but not
consistently, so is really a SAHM walks her son to his school and goes
to school with the younger child in a stroller and with the dog (a
very hyper boxer). Then in the afternoon she walks to get him but
without the dog.

DD#1 and dd#2 do aerobic exercise to video tapes which they trade.
Both of them are WOH.

Thanks.

3 kids (13, 11, 5) SAH (mostly...) When my first two were little, I
used my double stroller for walks a lot in good weather. (Amazing how
50-60 pounds of cargo adds to the workout!) When my second was a year
old, I joined a 2x/week evening aerobics class. I also used exercise
videos during naptime off and on for years. Now, I go to Jazzercise
(childcare avail for 5yo) 3x/week in the a.m. and also walk 3x/week
before my husband leaves for work in the morning.

If you know another mom with kids the same age, having a walking
companion is really nice; we used to walk to distant parks, let the
kids play then walk home when they were tired. (works best if you're
SAH, granted!)

Hope you find a good solution here!

Currently SAH, soon to be WOH. One baby, about a year old. Don't
have a designated workout time -- instead just try to integrate
physical activity into my daily life as much as possible. Walk for
errands, bike to go places (when not with the Bug), take the stairs,
etc. Just read that when Sprint built a new office they deliberately
spread the place out and put the parking lot further away so that
people would have to walk -- I find that sort of thing works better
for me than trying to carve time out.

and the Bug, 11.5 months

This is bizarre- I was going to post almost this exact thread tonight!

I work out of the home 3 days a week, home the rest. I've been doing *nothing*
since I moved 6 months ago, have gained 8 lbs, and have finally had enough!
Just over the weekend I decided I have to get back into shape.

I do walk with the kids a few times a week, but I'm going to step it up a
notch. I have 2 kids- 3 years and 13 months- and we go in the double stroller.
SOmetimes it's hard as the 3 year old doesn't want to ride, but she's more
amenable to it than she was a year ago, truth be told.

I've just started incorporating light weight lifting and floor exercises into
my routine while watching TV at night. I may get a few workout videos but worry
they may become monotonous. The gym is too far away to be practical.
