Keeping it active



This week I got some SERIOUS activity in and loved every minute! I lost .6 this week, but my major achievement was in getting a record 62 activity points!  That is the most I have gotten EVER! I went hiking in the Catskills and here on Long Island, I also completed a set of 4 kickboxing classes. I am killing the activity and feeling GREAT! I gotta write more about all the hiking, it was AMAZING! Get out there and get active, try new things you never know what may spark an interest! Stay tuned since next week I am doing my second 5k and I am setting a goal to do a 14 minute mile.

What is your fitness personality?

We all know exercise is good, we all know we really have to do it.  We hear of all the benefits and all we think is, "Seriously, I have to add one more thing to my daily to do list??" So to be "good" I gotta get to the gym, run on the treadmill, do some reps with weights and HATE every minute.

NOOOO! You don't have to do that to exercise! If you are moving you are exercising!

Here are some ideas

 You gotta clean the house, okay turn up the music and get crazy with your chores.  You can kill 2 birds with one stone!
You have a dog, why not take them for a nice long walk?
You like the beauty of the outdoors? Why not try hiking? (My personal favorite!)
Got some extra aggression, feel angry? Try our some kick boxing classes, or get a heavy bag for home.
Like to dance? Have your own dance party at home and turn up the volume!  Maybe try Zumba, so much fun!
You used to play a sport?  Why not rekindle that old passion.

Be the person you want to be! The person you know you are.  Is that person sitting around on the couch watching TV like 4 hours a night?  Didn't think so...
