Ways to Make Exercising Fun!

QUESTION:
I've tried DVDs, walking outside, gym classes, and using fitness equipment. I just can't seem to find any exercise I enjoy. Any advice?

ANSWER:
Sounds as if you just need to change your mind-set. Think of exercise as movement rather than a strict regimen! Make a list of some physical activities that you enjoy or would like to try, such as trail hiking, mountain biking, swimming, swing dancing, golf, and skiing. Guess what? Doing any of these things regularly will get you in shape! In the meantime, do little things regularly to ensure that you reach your fitness goals. Take the stairs whenever you can, always seek the farthest parking spot instead of the closest one, and when you're shopping, stroll the entire mall or shopping center at least once. Don't give up! Be creative, find an "exercise" that you like, and do it!
