Can fitness really be easy?
Yes! Walking offers the easiest, least expensive way to work out for most people. And, with every step you take, you are one step closer to better health.
- Walk to work or school, if it is not too far.
- Instead of taking the elevator, take the stairs.
- Wake up a half an hour earlier than you normally do and head outside for a brisk walk or light jog.
- Get off the bus one stop early, and walk the rest of the way home.
- Park a little further from home or work than you normally do.
Can fitness really be fun?
Yes! When you can't stand the thought of hopping on the treadmill, find an activity you’ve always wanted to do, and give it a try.
- Haven’t you always wanted to learn how to Salsa or swing dance? Sign up for a dance class.
- Always been a fan of The Karate Kid? Give karate or kickboxing a try.
- Miss the days when you were the star of your sports team? Join a soccer, softball, or basketball team…or organize your own with co-workers, friends, or family.
- Wondering what Pilates and yoga are all about? Borrow a book or video from the library, and see for yourself.
