10 Ways to
Exercise When You Don't Feel Like Exercising
|
Exercise. It's been endorsed by every major health organization in the
country as one of the most beneficial things you can do for your body.
One half hour of moderate physical activity a day is the key to better
health, they say. The best diet in the world can only go so far in
helping you lose weight. To really see the effects of changing your
eating habits (in lost pounds and inches, that is), you need to rev
up your body with physical exercise.
So why does the word bring a collective groan to dieters around the
world? Maybe it's our mistaken impression that exercise is a chore,
and a boring, painful one at that. Here are ten ways to exercise that
should get rid of that impression for good, and make exercise something
you can look forward to:
1. Take a walk through a favorite place. One half hour of moderately
paced walking will burn 450 calories - and make you feel great. Make
sure that you're wearing comfortable shoes, and pick a venue you enjoy.
Try a walk around the lake, up and down the block or around the mall
- your body doesn't know the difference.
2. Go out and play a game of tag with your kids. Making exercise a
family activity turns it into fun that you share with them. Besides
being good for your body, you're instilling good habits in them, and
creating happy memories that will stay with them for life.
3. Go swimming. An annual membership to the local YMCA or YWCA is
fairly inexpensive, and many have 'scholarships' and financial aid
available. Swimming is great exercise - it's aerobic, low stress on
your joints, and a lot of fun!
4. Join an exercise class. You can turn exercise into a social activity
by becoming part of a class. Besides making friends, you're more likely
to exercise if you're paying for it.
5. Get an exercise buddy. It's partly the same principle as joining
a
class - turn exercise into a social activity. In addition to that,
making a commitment to a friend for a daily exercise date will make
it far more likely that you'll stick to it.
6. Play ball! Seriously. If your company has a sports team (softball,
anyone?), join up. Or join a bowling league, volleyball team or other
sports group that practices and plays regularly.
7. Get a trampoline. Mini-trampolines are easy to set up, store in
small spaces and provide a stress-free surface on which to bounce, dance
and have a lot of fun.
8. Go for a bike ride. Even leisurely bike-riding burns calories and
exercises muscles that don't get used in regular walking. No need for
an exercise 'routine' - just ride your bike to the store, or back and
forth to work each day.
9. Take up a new active hobby. Would you believe that gardening is exercise?
Bending and stretching and digging and weeding - half an hour of energetic
work in your garden burns more calories than a brisk walk.
10. Challenge yourself. If you're the kind of person who thrives on
competition, challenge yourself to meet a new goal each week. Walk one
more block. Do six more sit-ups. Take the stairs each day instead of
the elevator. Goal-setting to meet challenges is a great way to commit
to exercise.
