What’s the safest home exercise equipment when you have very young children in the house?
Question by Dave of the Hill People: What’s the safest home exercise equipment when you have very young children in the house?
When one has young children (under the age of three), one obviously ends up spending a good deal of time at home & it’s difficult to get to the gym. However, most treadmills and exercise bikes have moving parts that are dangerous for small, curious toddlers. Is there home exercise equipment out there that is child-safe, or ways to better child-proof home exercise equipment you already have?
Best answer:
Answer by jadeapple
BoFlex! It’s all a system of plastic rods that aren’t weight but offer resistance and, even if you pull on them or play with them they won’t fall on you or smack you or anything. It’s very safe, I have 4 little siblings and they haven’t been injured yet.

I would suggest keeping the exercise equipment in a seperate room, that is mostly off limits (such as a master bedroom, spare room, or basement) and using it at a time when you do not need to monitor your child– e.g. when it is napping. Or, alternatively, you could workout while s/he is in a playpen. It is good for you to realize that exercise equipment has many small moveable parts and are not safe for a baby.
That being said, I am sure those big exercise balls would be harmless and maybe even fun for a toddler! Yoga and aerobics are also good alternatives that do not require equipment– just a DVD!
