Watching  my  kids run around outside enjoying the fresh air and having fun made me   think. My children are much happier, more energized, and have better   concentration after enjoying physical activity. Everyone can experience   these results and feel the fountain of youth by maintaining regular   exercise.<\/p>\n<p>Looking for a fun way to get fit? Spend some  time with children. As  parents, we teach our children valuable lessons,  but we also learn a  lot from them. Kids want to have fun.  They find  something they enjoy,   take chances on things they never tried, explore  their strengths and  weaknesses, and are determined to get better at  things by practicing.   Playing with my kids on the ball field, at the  park, running around outside  and biking this week showed all of this. We do not  stop playing because  we are old; we grow old because we stop playing!<\/p>\n<p>Exercise  creates brain power and enhances moods.  When engaging in high  paced  physical activity for at least 20 minutes, more oxygen gets to  the brain  creating a release of &#8220;feel good&#8221; chemicals like seratonin  and  dopamine.  These chemicals help us focus, give us energy, increase   memory and mood, raise self esteem, decrease anxiety, and improve our   problem solving skills.  Kids who spend more time doing physical   activities instead of watching television or playing video games have   improved brain function and perform better in school.<\/p>\n<p>Creating a  foundation for fitness is important. Get out there and get  active and  you&#8217;ll be showing your kids how to endure a healthy  lifestyle.  Finding  an activity you enjoy will motivate you to stay  active.  As a family, we  enjoy bike riding, swimming, baseball,  golf  and just playing outside.   My children often do <a href=\"http:\/\/beachbodycoach.com\/fitwithmolly\">Beachbody&#8217;s  home fitness programs<\/a> on their own or with me.  We have built up a fitness library with programs such as <a href=\"http:\/\/teambeachbody.com\/shop\/-\/shopping\/P90X?referringRepId=46500\">P90X<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/teambeachbody.com\/shop\/-\/shopping\/BRAZILBUTTLIFT?referringRepId=46500\">Brazil Butt Lift<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/teambeachbody.com\/shop\/-\/shopping\/TurboFire?referringRepID=46500\">TurboFire<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/teambeachbody.com\/shop\/-\/shopping\/RevAbs?referringRepId=46500\">RevAbs<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/teambeachbody.com\/shop\/-\/shopping\/HipHopAbs?referringRepId=46500\">Hip Hop Abs<\/a> and soon to come, <a href=\"http:\/\/teambeachbody.com\/shop\/-\/shopping\/Insanity?referringRepId=46500\">Insanity<\/a>.
