It is summertime, and the birds are singing. The flowers are blooming, and the entire outdoors has come back to life from a long cold winter. You are a busy woman, working all the time.
Your family and work have been your number one priority during the winter.
Maybe you are not feeling as good as you did before, when you did take the time out to exercise.
Now summer has finally come, and you need to exercise, but you are not sure that you have any more time than you did before.
For your health, not only physically, but also mentally, you need to adjust your schedule so you will find time to exercise.
Exercising by the Water
Since it is summertime, why not do your exercise routines in the water. You can do your routine by a beautiful lake or on a peaceful shore if you live near the ocean. The slapping of water or waves, as it hits the shore, will give you a tranquil feel while you are performing your exercises like walking or jogging[Jogging Tips].
The lakefront or shoreline will provide a wonderful place for you to take a brisk walk or steady jag. If you cannot make it to the lake or beach during your workweek, because of your busy schedule, you may want to do this routine on a Saturday or your day off. This will give you a chance to unwind from your hectic days.
Small Sessions of Exercise
During the week, when you are rushing back and forth trying to get things done, you may have to do your exercise routine in small sessions.
When you first get up in the morning, if you could take a small amount of time to do just a couple of aerobic exercises outside in your yard, it will help to clear your mind for the day ahead.
Aerobic exercise will be good for your heart, and it will release serotonin in your brain that will help to relieve stress. Try to do this when things are still quiet around your home. Another good time to do a small exercise routine is during your lunch hour.
Go outside at work, and take a brisk walk around your building, taking in the sunshine as you go. This little bit of exercise in the middle of your day will help you to get through the rest of your day.
Escape on Vacation
Take you and your family on a vacation. Family vacations are great for exercise, but exercise that is fun. Make sure you go somewhere that you can do some fun activities, such as swimming, tennis, scuba diving.
Any kind of exercise that will get you outside in the summer weather would be good. You may even be able to stay at a resort that offers a daily exercise regimen.
During the summertime, you will need to make sure that you stay hydrated, no matter what kind of exercises you decide to do.
Well written, good advice and certainly some good motivation. Have a look at my review of Craig Balantyne and Turbulence Training. He even has a workout specifically for women. Short effective interval training to get you in shape and help keep you in shape without long boring routines.
