With all of life’s demands, it can be all too easy to skip a workout in order to accomplish another task. To avoid losing out on the health benefits of regular exercise, here are some tips for accommodating exercise despite an on-the-go schedule:
- Work out early in the morning - before life’s demands get in the way.
- Sometimes commuting can be a workout. Consider riding a bike or running to work.
- Office breaks can also be exercise breaks. Step away from the desk to stretch, walk, or complete a brief bodyweight workout. Exercise breaks at work often also bring the added benefits of improved productivity and mental clarity.
- Install a home gym for easy access to exercise. It eliminates the time needed to commute to a gym, get changed, and return home or to work.
