- One of the most natural ways to get a workout without noticing is probably laughing. Get together with a group of friends and head over to a comedy club. By the end of the night your abs will be aching.
- Are you one of those people who will wait ages for the elevator to arrive? Perhaps take the stairs instead. Taking the stairs can be faster than waiting and riding the elevator.
- Keep active at your desk. When you’re sitting in your chair try some breathing exercises and easy aerobics. For example, hold in your stomach and let it out.
- Leg lifts are an even better aerobic to do from your chair at work. It’s easy to do and your colleagues won’t look at you funny.
- Buy a stress ball and squeeze it during work, while watching TV or even at school. This burn calories, relieves stress and improves your blood flow.
- It’s always helpful to think of an alternative. If your work is fairly close to you, instead of taking the bus all the way to the door step, hop off a few stops before and enjoy the fresh air.
- Speaking of fresh air, if you have children or pets, spend some time outdoors. Play some of their favourite games which will keep you running around.
- Everyone’s home tends to get a bit messy and that may be your excuse to avoid going to the gym. Although if you are doing a full thorough clean of your house, vacuuming, dusting, cleaning windows, all of these activities get your heart pumping!
- Some people find gardening relaxing but it is also hard work. Activities like this allow you to enjoy your hobbies and include some exercise outside.
- Do you enjoy the nightlife? Grab dancing shoes because whether it is tango, salsa, hip hop or ballet, dancing uses all of your body parts and you get a great work out while having fun.
Finding time to exercise can be difficult especially after a long day of work when you just want to go home and sleep. By switching up your daily routine just a tad, you’ll be able to add in fun, easy exercises. You’ll be feeling less fatigued and more alive in no time!
