How Much Water Do You Need?
When it’s hot outside, it’s important to stay hydrated. I’ve been especially mindful of this during the summer. My daughter spends her days outside at camp and my son has workouts for football a few times each week, often coming home very sweaty. It got me thinking about keeping them hydrated.

Hydrate and Stretch this Summer!
Summer is in full swing and my kids are busy with sports camps and day camps. My son is doing a strength and conditioning camp and the first day after camp his legs were sore! I encouraged him to do some leg stretches to help loosen them up. I got to thinking there are lots of activities we do during the summer that might make our legs a bit sore. Going for hikes, riding bikes, playing sports, walking while sightseeing on vacation and more! A new physical activity video we have on Spend Smart. Eat Smart. that might be helpful when you have sore legs is our Lower Body Stretch. It can be done as a standalone stretch or done when the body is warmed up for a deeper stretch.
