Excercise is NOT a four-letter word

When you say to someone, "you really need to excercise", you start to hear the groans and sighs before the words even come out of your mouth. Guess what? Unless you are a vegetable, you do some form of excercise everday! Do you do housework...that's excercise; how about walking to the mailbox to get your mail....that's excercise; do you take a shower...believe it or not, you are even excercising then!

The point is, if you can do that...you CAN do more. Your body needs you to do more. Face it...20 minutes a day is not a long time. Everybody can find 20 minutes a day to dedicate to some form of formal time excercise. It doesn't even have to be done at one time. You can break the 20 minutes up!

Walking is a great form of excercise, especially for beginners. Face it, you can walk anywhere and you do not need any type of special equipment. If you are a beginner, set a goal to walk for 5 minutes in the morning. Walk again at night. Once you are comfortable with that, start increasing your minutes and your distance. Before you know it, you will be walking the full 20 minutes (or even more) at one time!

The point is, find something...anything that will get you moving and just DO IT!

No excuses! Believe me, I have heard a lot of excuses of why , "I just can't do it". Yes, you can! Don't be your worst enemy. As my husband says, "Excuses are like buttholes, everyone has one and they all stink!"

Get up and get moving...it's as simple as that.
