Tips For Staying Active During Winter Months:
- Exercise Indoors At A Gym Or Fitness Center – Find a relatively inexpensive class and virtually socialize by doing at-home workouts, stretches, aerobics, and dances to build strength. A simple jog up and down the stairs every day can lead to a huge difference.
- Do Chores Around The House – Keeping up with your daily chores can be physical activity in itself. Things like vacuuming, laundry, and cleaning certain house areas can help keep some pounds off. Chores can easily become physical exercises if handled properly. Shoveling snow is perhaps the most prominent form of physical activity you can do to be both productive and physically active.
- Stick To Those New Year Resolutions – It’s very easy to quickly give up on those weight loss and exercise new year’s resolutions by the second or third week of January. Getting a gym membership can easily combat that and keep you exercising and staying physically active into the Spring.
- Set goals for yourself and track your progress over time
- Make a commitment to stay active and find a workout buddy to help keep you accountable.
- Stay positive, and don’t let the winter weather get you down!
