[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP here- so on the weekend, I do go to the gym at 7 am because it opens later and my DH and kid are usually still sleeping ( our kid actually sleeps in). If I go to yoga, that might by a bit later, so the one poster is correct in saying that I do leave our child with him.
 During the week, I run outside or use DVDs at home to save on gym commute time.  I work full time as does he so being efficient with free time is important.

I'll be honest and do wish that we could be the kind of couple that works out together but it's not his thing and I've accepted that. I guess I should accept that I can't MAKE him chose healthier habits. It would be best to be supportive when he does so.

I don't like it when he criticizes exercise in front of our child though. He's even said things like "studies show that working out is bad for you" in reference to a study on people who take rigorous regimens like Crossfit to an extreme. I want our DC to see that exercise is an important part of being a healthy person physically and emotionally. It's definitely a tense subject.

Thanks all for your advice though.[/quote]
