Playground Exercises For Parents (PE4P) book covers a diversity of exercises within most common playgrounds for small children, but is not intended to compete, replace, or to be better than what can be provided within any professional gym or fitness club/center environment for adults. Most parents want to improve their health and fitness, while others simply want to maintain their current optimal physical condition without getting much worse with age. This book is designed for such adults who do not have enough time to exercise, and/or cannot afford a local professional fitness center membership, but are spending a lot of free time at playgrounds watching children, such as parents, relatives, and/or babysitters.
Exercise may not be a higher priority than taking our children to a playground, but to improve time management many of us can plan to do both at the same time. There are many places in a playground to do diverse, basic, and similar types of exercises that most of us need regularly, as this booklet shows with pictures and text for each common playground equipment. For example, there are many places and ways to do push-ups, triceps dips, step-ups, and even plyometric power & cardiorespiratory challenging activities. It is important to frequently challenge the strength conditioning of our arms, legs, core, and complete cardiorespiratory system. While parents are watching their kids in any playground, there should not be any frequent excuse to not having fun, perform regular needed exercises, while bonding with our children on the playgrounds too.
However, NOT ALL exercises in this book and website are for everyone, with some too easy and basic for some people, while other exercises may be too advanced and will easily cause injuries for others. The first chapter is dedicated to Safety Tips and Injury Prevention information, but regardless, all exercises, motivation, and information provided on this website and book does not accept any liability or responsibility for any injuries or deaths that may occur while performing anything related to this website and book. All who view, learn, and practice anything provided within this website and PE4P book assume all risks and results from the use, non-use, or misuse of information and exercises provided.
Nevertheless, after viewing this whole website, e-book, and/or hardcover book, hopefully everyone may learn more, become more motivated, and/or dedicated to exercising more often to improve health, fitness, life, longevity, and bonding with your children on the playground too. As this book and website gathers more feedback and requests, more activities and updates on this website may be added periodically as needed, by popular demand.
