How To Fit Exercise Into Your Busy Schedule

Did I hear you say fitting exercise into your busy schedule? That's as absurd as saying that there are eight days in a week right?!


First, you've never exercised before or engaged regularly in a sport; second, you've never been into the fitness crowd and have had meager time for such pursuits, and third, you're far too busy to even think of exercise.


In other words, YOU'RE JUST NOT INTO IT.


Of course your friends talk about it and rave about the latest fitness craze, but you've seen it too often: some of them are on the "on-again-off-again" treadmill / stair master mania, and you wonder why they haven't shred the fat that they're desperately still trying to hide.


Seeing what your friends go through and not seeing any results, you cling to the notion that your total lack of interest is justified.


You're not the least bit inclined to engage in these circus-like contortions or do those mindless freestyle strokes in the water. That would only encroach into your already busy schedule of juggling family, home and career. These three combined - husband/children/work are your exercise.


Yup, we've got a problem.


That mindset is like a seething volcano that's about to erupt. If you stubbornly cling to the notion that the "fat to trim" concept is merely a myth and a figment of the imagination of a handful of oddballs, your health could be going into "eruption mode" soon, like a restless volcano.


Have you looked at your body lately? Have you taken stock of your overall physical well-being?
