6 Ways to Find the Time to Work Out
By Monica Ciociola
Lack of time is one of the main excuses people give for not exercising regularly. Even those of you who have discovered the wonders of in-home fitness still find it difficult to juggle work, family, and fitness. We hear you asking for help, so here are six smart ways to find more time for your workout, whether it’s Slim Training® with Slim in 6 or Tilting, Tucking & Tightening with Hip Hop Abs. With these tips, you can maintain any fitness resolution you make all year long.
Shop online. Now that you can basically order anything and everything over the Internet and have it delivered, consider doing some of your errands and shopping this way. Most major retailers have online stores, and provide shipping options. So there’s no need to go to the mall or the post office.
Farm out some chores. Try dropping off your laundry for fluff ‘n’ fold—especially if you’ve already been spending money at the laundromat. You’ll find that it doesn’t cost that much more. Also, check out your local maid service. For a little extra money, you can save a couple of hours cleaning your home, not to mention the dozens of hours of procrastinating!
Wake up 30 minutes earlier. Work out before heading to the office. A little trick for waking up faster is to touch your toes as soon as you open your eyes—this brings blood to your head so you feel alert quicker. After your workout, you’ll be more energized for the day ahead and hardly notice the lost sleep. Working out in the morning as opposed to midday or at night also saves you the double cost of showering, getting dressed, and making yourself beautiful.
Prepare meals in advance. Try to get most of your meal preparation for the week done over the weekend. That means washing all your lettuce, veggies, herbs, fish, and poultry up front, and stocking complete salads-in-a-bag to take to work. You can also prepare individual slices of poultry and fish and various veggies for dinner. Also, make vats of soup, pasta, and brown rice that you’ll be able to microwave throughout the week. Filling up on healthy meals and having low-fat, good-for-you snacks readily available at work will reduce the temptation to sample the goodies from the office vending machine.
Take your DVDs with you. If you’re traveling, make sure you pack your favorite fitness DVDs along with your laptop so you can work out wherever you are, whether it’s at your in-laws’ house, your friend’s house, or in a hotel room.
Pop in a 20-minute workout. Beachbody makes some superfast and effective 10-to-20-minute workouts for when you’re seriously short on time. Try the Turbo Jam® 20 Minute Workout for an excellent calorie-blasting session, any of the 10-Minute Trainer® workouts for excellent muscle-toning and fat-burning results in as little as 10 minutes, and the Great Body Guaranteed!™ collection to focus on specific trouble areas in even less than 10 minutes. It’s only about 10 to 20 minutes, but the rewards stretch far beyond that to stronger bones and muscles, a sharper mind, and a lower risk of developing cancer and diabetes. And remember, working out reduces stress. You’ll enjoy your free time much more if you’re healthy and energized.
