My child went to the gym to exercise at the age of 4.
Taking children to the gym once a week has become a fixed entertainment for my daughter and me. I exercised seriously, and the child happily had a good time with another little sister. Everyone didn't bother each other and enjoyed themselves.

The gym seems to be the exclusive sports base for adults, and heavy equipment has certain hidden dangers to children's safety, so children are not allowed to enter. If you have this idea, it is really underestimating your child's ability, and it also misses an excellent opportunity for your child to establish a fitness interest from an early age.

In the gym, they will build castles with foam shafts, use tires as Noah's Ark, use sports ropes as fire hoses, transport foam bricks on treadmills, and dance lions in tandem with yoga mats on their heads. Pick up a 4 kg kettle bell and run around, pick up a 6 kg ball and jump around. They will also design some difficult movements by themselves, sit on a yoga ball to keep their balance, jump up with a foam shaft and beat the bead curtain on the wall, and walk quickly with a yoga brick on their heads to see who can keep it for a long time. Everything in the gym is their game props, exerting their imagination and unconsciously exercising their senses. Three hours later, they were sweating and happy.

Of course, children will have conflicts when playing games, but their world is simple, and having fun is their common goal. They can naturally find good ways to solve disputes and shake hands, which also exercises their communication skills, emotional control and problem-solving skills.

Instead of waiting for the child to grow up and then let him go to exercise, it is better to let her soak in the fitness environment from an early age and watch her mother sweat passionately and keep exercising. This is to lead by example, let her see the most positive and optimistic side of her mother, and really want to be a healthy and happy person.
