Well, I&#39;ve seen people who want to loose weight badly enough. They will restrict their diets, exercise rigorously for an hour a day and even swear off alcohol &#8211; gasp &#8211; and chocolate &#8211; double gasp! So, don&#39;t give me that bull! <\/p>\n<p>People shy away from exercise because they think they&#39;ll have to spend hours in a gym. To maintain good health all you need is a healthy diet and a daily walk that can be broken up into increments throughout the day. <\/p>\n<p>Still don&#39;t believe me? I&#39;ll show you how easy it is to fit brief walks into your day:<\/p>\n<p>1)  Is Sex and the City a rerun again? It breaks my heart when that happens. Why not go for a 30-minute walk. If it&#39;s a new episode that you simply can&#39;t miss, jump rope during commercials or run on the spot.<\/p>\n<p>2)  Does carting the kids to hockey or baseball cut into your exercise time?  Take some inspiration from Jr. and stay on your feet during the game. You&#39;ll get kudos for being the team&#39;s best cheer leader, and your butt won&#39;t expand to the size of the soccer field.<\/p>\n<p>3)  Are you dying to get your hands on the next best-seller? Buy it as a book-on-tape and take it walking with you. It might have you extending your stroll to finish a chapter.<\/p>\n<p>4)  Instead of a sumptuous brunch with the girls, try a brisk 30-minute walk with your BFF. Catching up on all the latest gossip can be just as delicious during a walk &#8211; plus it won&#39;t tempt you to cheat on your healthy eating plan. <\/p>\n<p>5)  Remember when people used to &#34;run&#34; errands? Well many of us still take that term literally.  The next time you need a quart of milk, walk to the local grocer. <\/p>\n<p>6)  Use your lunch break as an exercise break. I go work out and then eat lunch at my desk. A brisk walk around the block will leave you more refueled for the afternoon than that third cup of coffee. <\/p>\n<p>7)  Do you complain about how slow your apartment elevator is? Take the faster route &#8211; the stairs. You&#39;ll burn calories in the process. <\/p>\n<p>8)  It&#39;s always ironic that those who circle the parking lot looking for the closest spot are often the most overweight. Park farther away where there are spots o&#39; plenty. You&#39;ll burn extra calories lugging your groceries back to the car.  <\/p>\n<p>9)  Have you ever heard the phrase &#34;hurry up and wait!&#34;? Well it&#39;s not just a humorous observation it&#39;s a great way to stay moving.  The next time you&#39;re waiting in a long lineup don&#39;t take a chair, pace the floor or do a little stretching.<\/p>\n<p>10)  If you have no time to exercise, chances are you don&#39;t have time to clean the house either. Housework &#8211; such as dusting, vacuuming, shoveling and raking &#8211; is multitasking because it counts as exercise.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"twitter-this\"><a class=\"showform\" href=\"javascript:none('')\" id=\"a\" onclick=\"mosform('');\" title=\"Compartelo con Twitter\">Twitter This<\/a>\n<div id=\"form\" style=\"display:none\">\n<form class=\"formtwit\" id=\"myForm\" action=\"https:\/\/flirtingwithfitness.com\/exercise\/wp-content\/plugins\/twitter-this\/post_to_twitter.php\" method=\"get\">\nUsuario: <input class=\"ttinput\" type=\"text\" name=\"usser\" \/>\n Password: <input class=\"ttinput\" type=\"password\" name=\"pass\" \/>\n <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"title\" value=\"\" \/>\n <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"permalink\" value=\"https:\/\/flirtingwithfitness.com\/exercise\/exercising\/making-time-for-exercise\/\" \/>\n <input type=\"submit\" value=\"&raquo;\" \/>\n <img decoding=\"async\" id=\"loader\" src=\"https:\/\/flirtingwithfitness.com\/exercise\/wp-content\/plugins\/twitter-this\/ajax-loader.gif\" alt=\"cargando...\" \/>\n <\/form><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Making Time for Exercise<\/p>\n<p>\nA day doesn&#39;t go by without one of my clients professing that they simply don&#39;t have time for exercise.
