Hate Exercise? 10 Fun Ways To Move Your Body…
and avoid the gym
We can all agree that exercise is good for you. In fact, it’s great for you. It doesn’t mean it’s fun, though. Many people believe they hate exercise. ALL exercise. Unfortunately, many fitness influencers have been peddling the no pain, no gain philosophy. A lot of their workouts are very intense or involve a lot of time in the gym. It’s no wonder exercise gets a bad rap.
It doesn’t have to be that way. There are so many ways to move and get your heart rate up without ever setting foot in a gym. Here’s my top 10 to get you started 🙂
1) Play Dance Games
There are lots of dance games on every console available. There are different music types, energy and difficulty levels, so there’s something for everyone. You could even get your friends or family involved and make it a regular party.
2) Organise A Scavenger Hunt
This is another one to do with friends. Make up a scavenger hunt and head out to explore the city you live in. You could all contribute a little bit of money and buy a prize for the winner. If you’re trying to beat the other teams, you’ll find yourself moving faster and getting your heart rate up.
