Variety Is The Spice of Exercise

I know I nag about walking a lot. It’s really the easiest beneficial exercise to do and it takes no special equipment. But you do need to do other exercises as well. If you think about it you probably have other exercise options available as well. Maybe an exercise bike in the basement or garage. Or maybe someone you know has a rider or exercise machine they bought from one of those infomercials. If you have something like that available… USE IT.

For example:

  • Do one 10 minutes session on a stationary bike for a good cardiovascular workout.
  • Then do one of your ten minute sessions doing sit-ups and push-ups. (Even if you have to cheat some on them) leg lifts, crunches and some stretches. They will all add to your strength and flexibility.
  • You don’t need to have a set of dumbbells to lift weights. Fill a couple of milk jugs with water and I bet you have one of those grip springs somewhere too. Do different things to different muscle groups. After a few 10 minute sessions, you’ll feel some muscles you weren’t aware of before and actually start feel healthier too.
