It’s summer break, which means I’m constantly trying to keep my kids busy and entertained. I love going for an early morning jog or walk to the park to take up some time and wear them out. This week’s workout is one you can do right there at the park while they play.
The first thing on the workout is a 1 mile run. For me the park is exactly 1 mile away so it works perfectly. You on the other hand may have to park a mile away or maybe even do the run at the park. Whatever works best for you is what I suggest!
Weekly Workout:
1 Mile Run to or at the Park
Then 3 rounds of:
15 tricep dips
10 knee tucks
5 push-ups
10 stair lunges
20 knee raises
30 sit-ups
See the video below for instructions and demos of all the movements.
Equipment Needed:
- This workout is done at a park, standard park equipment is needed.
- If you’d like to keep track of your time, a Timer. (We frequently use the MYWOD app and recommend it to our readers. You can keep track of your workouts, they’ve got How To videos, and of course the app has great timers.)
Modification Options:
- Be sure to modify this at home workout to your ability level. Don’t let the number of repetitions in this workout intimidate you. If needed do less rounds or a smaller amount of repetitions. If your park doesn’t have all the equipment needed, try and find something similar or eliminate that particular exercise. A great substitute for any exercises is burpees—> you can do those anywhere!

I would never think to use the swing like that. Very clever!
There are so many different ways to use all the equipment. I will have to do some more of these park workouts in the future.
I love this! I always tell people they don’t need a gym membership to get fit. Thanks for sharing how you can do it all at the part 😀
I know, right!? No expensive equipment needed to get fit!
Wow – what a great idea for the swing! You look like you’re in top shape – thanks for the tips!
I don’t know about top shape but I’m trying my best at 15 weeks pregnant! Thanks for stoping by Monica!
You inspire me with our new easy-to-do exercises….then I get so lazy and forget! hmm.
The hardest part is showing up. Once you’re there (gym, garage, park, etc.) it’s much easier. You can do it!
Great idea for taking the kiddos to the park and also getting in your own exercise too! The swing exercise looks fun!
They are fun, but seriously still a workout!
Awesome information! I love the push – up idea!
