I'm A Mum With No Time To Workout – This Running Buggy Made My Step Count Skyrocket

The author running with her buggy.

Since becoming a parent, I’ve found it difficult to squeeze in time for the gym or to properly keep fit. Between the chaos of having a toddler, and trying to stay on top of everyday life, I just don’t have the freedom to disappear for an hour-long workout anymore.

So, I decided to give the Cybex Avi Spin a go. After a few weeks of using it, both for runs and as an everyday stroller, I feel like I can give it an honest review.

And spoiler alert: I really like it.

Having a running buggy has made such a difference – it means I can combine time with my little one and exercise, without having to compromise on either.

Why I’m a stroller fitness convert

The first thing I noticed is how smooth it feels to push. The air-filled tires and suspension do their job really well – pavement, gravel paths, or the odd bumpy bit in the park haven’t been a problem. My little one seems comfy in there too, no bouncing around or fussing, which is always a relief.
