We
all know that getting a good workout a few times a week is great for our health
but sometimes finding the time to drive to the gym or a track just doesn’t fit
our schedule. And if it doesn’t fit then we usually end up skipping it ☹.
We’re too busy, right!?
Not
really. With today’s technology we have tons of options to keep us on track!
Here’s a few techy suggestions to keep your health journey from derailing:
Pedometers: It
doesn’t matter if you pick Fitbit, Apple watch, Samsung phone, or a simple
pedometer just pick something that will help you be accountable. People who are
diligent about getting their 10,000 steps each day sleep better, reduce risks
of heart attacks, and have better mental health. And all steps count!! Cleaning
house? Turn some music on and add a few dance steps in. Running errands? Park
at the back of the lot.
YouTube: Don’t have time
to go to a class at the gym or maybe you just don’t like people 😉. No problem! YouTube.com
is full of great classes of all types and for people of all levels. Throw
on some comfortable clothes and do a quick search for your video and you’re all
ready to get your sweat on…or stretch…or meditate…whatever you need.
Smart
Exercise Equipment:
Looking for a spin class or maybe live yoga in your home but with real people
or just great feedback? You have so many options! Peloton
has bikes and treadmills that are connected to live instructors and classes.
Also there’s now an interactive mirror, conveniently named Mirror, that can guide you through yoga,
boxing, strength training or cardio all while giving you feedback about your
form and keeping up with your changing measurements. AMAZING!!
So
no more excuses. You can do this!!
Thank you,
