Some days are just to busy for a traditional hour-long workout. Doing something is better than nothing at all. Here are a few was to add some extra activity to your day.

  •  Wake up 30 minutes early and go for a run or walk.
  • Replace your desk chair with an exercise ball.
  • Walk the dog.
  • Walk or bike to work or running errands.
  • Do house work and yard work.
  • Count your steps with a pedometer (aim for 10,000 a day)
  • While watching TV do strength training exercises or walk on a treadmill.
  • When meeting friends go for a walk, window shop, go dancing.

Try to make activity part of your life and make it fun.

Let me know what you do to stay active. 🙂

Almost better!  This time next week I should be back to normal. Last week, it felt so good to return to exercise. I was sore from being sick and not being active. Also, my tennis elbow is almost completely recovered. Things are looking up. 🙂
