A blog..a bit different from the others!

Trampoline! It seemed like a great idea to do a blog about fitness related to the trampoline… You see both my daughters adore trampolining and gymnastics so they exercise almost every day.

“Mum, what do you need me to do?” said Anya.
“Just do an easy routine on the trampoline, without somersaults, so that children can practice at home”, I said to her.

So this is what she did!

“Anya, I said easy, without somersaults! Not every child has big trampoline like yours!”

“Rita, GET OFF THE TRAMPOLINE! Only one person at a time!”

“But, MUM, IT WAS MY TURN ON THE TRAMPOLINE!”

“Where did you come from? I wasn’t even talking to you, Rita! If you want to contribute, perhaps you can do a floor routine.”

“Anya, stop digging the ground!! Where are you going? Are you going to do this or not?”

At this stage Rita has started doing Tic Toc!! Really? I mean, REALLY? I feel like throwing her phone far, far away….
My SON, NOW, decided that this was the perfect time to play football and started kicking the ball on to the girls! OH MY GOD! KILL ME NOW!

There were tears, loud voices, huffing and puffing…..

This was meant to be easy, fun and relaxing! My life is spinning!

“Guys, I just need to video an easy, straight forward routine on the trampoline and a fitness floor routine! Is this too much to ask?”

This continued for quite some time….. I am now pulling my hair out, regretted my decision to have children and wished I could book a one way flight to Australia or something!!
I find it so much easier to talk about feet! Ingrowing toenails, corns, calluses, fungal infections, heel pain, verrucas… I miss all of these so much!!

Everybody walked off! Well, I did, while they were all still bickering!

Later in the evening I got the girls to complete the routines!!!

They may not be the most professional ones, but somehow I got an amazing sense of achievement!!
