It's difficult to exercise and lose weight if you're the only one doing it. There's a good reason why The Biggest Loser features teen contestants and families, since that's really the best way for you (and your loved ones) to lose weight.
If you're really serious about dropping the pounds, then the most important thing to do is to exercise together. As Cheryl Forberg put it in the Huffington Post, weight loss is a family affair. That's why these 5 family-friendly exercises are definitely the BEST way to lose weight, since you're doing it together. That way everyone wins!

Play Some Fútbol
Get your whole family together for a rousing game of soccer, kicking the ball from one end to the other. This is a great one because you can have a group as big or little as you want, plus you can spend hours running around and having fun without even realizing you’re losing weight.
Go Bike Riding
If you don’t want to make an investment, there are usually places where you can rent bikes but no matter what you do, riding bikes with your family is a GREAT way to spend your time together. Bonus: you can discover new parts of your hometown!
Teach Your Kids Salsa
Dancing around is one of my absolutely favorite ways to work out and you can get your kids in on it, too, if you teach them how to do some classic Latin dances. Salsa, merengue, bachata, anything that will get you and them shaking your bom-boms!
Start Jumping Rope
Burn the most amount of calories together by engaging in a regular game of jump rope. It’s so much fun if you get together, then take turns coming up with fun new ways and just jump-jump-jump for a while.
Walking in The Park
The easiest exercise to do with your kids is a simple walk in the park. Go somewhere that you haven’t been in a while (or ever!), and spend a couple of hours just relaxing and walking around for an hour. Spend that time catching up and enjoying your time together, even as you burn calories.
