Move it Monday: No excuse zone
if you're whining.
I do not have equipment; I do not have time to get to the gym; it's to late in the day to workout; I will exercise tomorrow. .. sound familiar??? No more excuses!! It's time to workout!!
On a beautiful spring day, choose to do some walking lunges up and down your driveway, in the backyard, or on the sidewalk while the kids ride their bikes. Ten minutes later you have given yourself a great lower and core body workout. Now get some cardio in the mix...a jump rope contest with your children is great fun! Jumping rope is fabulous for calorie burning, toning your arms and all over cardio fitness.
Is it raining and dark outside?....no worries - turn on the radio or pump up the volume on your ipod and JUST DANCE! Kids love to have a dance party and it is a fun way to burn calories. Jump up and down, spin around, just move with the beat!! Before you know it 30 minutes are up and you and the kids have gotten a great workout!
No more excuses....this monday just MOVE IT!!
