8 ways to get your exercise in

Posted on Jul 8th 2008 9:17PM by Martha Edwards
Most of us have one major problem with exercise: Finding time for it. I know the feeling--between working 8-10 hours a day, spending time with family and trying to run a household, it's difficult, sometimes impossible, to find time to head to the gym. My job is no help--being a writer doesn't exactly burn too many calories.

But they key is trying to find way to work exercise into your everyday life. Weight Loss Journal recently revealed 8 ways to exercise throughout the day, including:

  • Sucking in your stomach -- it really does help to tone your tummy, and it makes you look slimmer instantly.
  • Fidgeting. It helps you burn calories throughout the day.
  • Taking the stairs at work.
  • Using a desk exercise machine. You can work away while silently pedalling under your desk. Neat, huh?
Read the rest of the tips here, and when you're done, tell us what you do to work in the workouts.
