Wow oh wow. If you’re like me, you may have ate just a little too much in the past month. I try not to feel guilty about overeating because I hardly do it. Whether you eat without shame or suffer with just a bit of post-eating guilt, we can all make an effort to burn the extra calories and up our fitness productivity a bit. We’ve got some ways of how you can get in a few workouts after the indulging.
– Walk, walk, walk. That’s right. There’s no better way to get the blood flowin’ and burn some calories than by walking. And we don’t mean speed walking. A nice and slow brisk walk will make all of the difference in how you feel.
– Lift those weights! You don’t have to have a membership at a gym to do some gentle weight lifting. If you’ve got a few gallons of water at home, lift those a few times a day to tighten up those muscles. Resistance bands are also great for bulking up by using your own body weight.
– Go for a swim. Of course if you happen to be in an area that is cold, this may not be a great option but if you can find a heated pool nearby, a swim is the best way to get some fitness in. The best thing about swimming is that you always feel wonderful after swimming a few laps.
– Take a bike ride. Dust off that bike in the garage, put some air in those tires and go for a bike ride. If you can, load up your bike and take it on a hike or beautiful scenic route.
– Yoga. Ah yesssss, need a way to relax after the the family left your house a mess? Try yoga. It’s the best way to relax and even if you’re a newbie there are plenty of positions that can both work out your body effectively and relax you.
