Fit Tip

 Just do it!

Fit Tip

It's closing in on summer and I'm sure all the parents out there are scrambling to fill the kids schedule with activities for the summer.
Grab some of the fun and get your workout in by volunteering to work with your child's sports team! 

No plans to "join a team," then host your own kick-ball game/softball game/soccer match/tether-ball competition, etc once a week in your neighborhood!

No young-uns?  Check out the calendar of events with your nieces and nephews or sign up with a charitable organization.  Game on!

Fit Tip

You know how I'm always preaching the 10 minute workout...well, here's some easy ways to fit that in to your crazy schedule:

• While watching TV, do a chore (like dusting, Swiffering the floor, polishing silver, etc). 
• During commercials, do an exercise for the duration of the ad.  Try jumping jacks, triceps dip, push ups, or burpees.
• Make homemade bread-by hand!  Don't use the bread maker or Kitchen Aid; go old school and mix and knead by hand.
• Use the rest room in your office building farthest from your desk.
• Walk your talk; while chatting on the phone, move your body.
• Wash your own car!
• Rent an exercise video and shake up your routine.  FYI, Net Flix will hook you up.
• Every two hours at work, stand up, move away from your desk; take a flight of stairs, walk to the hallway water fountain, stretch and move.
• Escape for 5 or 10 minutes and walk around the building/house/school.
