Disguising Your Exercise

There are plenty of people out there who like the thought of being physically fit and in shape but very few of them are willing to go through with the effort that is necessary to exercise. Without exercise in our life, it is very difficult for us to maintain a healthy weight as well as to maintain a level of health that is acceptable to us. This can make it very difficult for many of us that are unwilling or unable to get into the gym on a regular basis. There are some ways that you can get exercise in your life and do so effortlessly but you’re going to have to disguise it in one way or another.

The easiest way for you to be able to do this is to disguise your exercise by making it out to be a hobby. Instead of spending endless hours on the treadmill, why not take up walking as a hobby. It doesn’t need to be strenuous activity, get yourself an MP3 player and listen to some relaxing music while you’re out taking a stroll. The same is also true of an exercise bike. Racking up mile after mile on one of the stationary bikes is not my idea of fun. I do love to go mountain biking and road biking and I get out and do it anytime that I possibly can. I know that this activity is very good for me but the simple fact of the matter is that I don’t recognize it as being exercise. To me, walking in this way or riding my bike is simply a hobby that I enjoy.

There may also be some things that you can do which will add to any exercise that you are doing effortlessly. For example, house cleaning is an excellent way to get in some exercise while doing something that needs to be done anyway. Most of us don’t like to clean our homes but it is something that we need to do on a regular basis. Make the most of the activity and get some exercise at the same time. The same is also true for things such as making choices of where to park. Instead of driving around the parking lot looking for the closest spot to the store, park further out of the lot and walk to the store. All of these little exercises add up in the long run.
