How much exercise...

Post by Summersmom on Sun Mar 18, 2012 10:23 pm

is enough? Summer is 7 months old and we take at least two walks a day that are a mile long. Is that enough or should we do more? Big Grin She seems to want more but I do not want to do anything that would be to much for her still developing body.

The website might have the guidelines becuase I'm not completly sure. I'm at work right now and for some reason it won't connect to the site. I don't think a little further will hurt just build up slowly.

The are devolping ligaments and their skeletal system until 18-24 months. Walking won't damage them but do keep away from high impact activites like weight pulling, running or jumping on hard surfaces, backpackin and slingpoles until then.
