Exercise tips

Exercise? Why bother?

Here are a few benefits of exercise

In a nutshell, exercise will make you look great and feel brilliant!

Get moving. Take the stairs instead of the lift, walk short journeys that you have to make, Get off the bus a stop early and walk the rest of the way. "You move it, you lose it"
Only 10 minutes. Stuck for time? Just 10 minutes of exercise twice a day can make a difference.
Buddy up. Ask a friend to become your exercise buddy. Catch up on all the gossip while exercising. Set mini contests against each other e.g. who can walk the most steps in a week.
Reward yourself. Set yourself weekly exercise goals and reward yourself at the end of the week if you have completed your goals. Rewards could include, a nice bubble bath, a new top, a facial or massage.
Double-up the stairs. Every time you take the stairs, simply take a double step or every other stair. Great for the legs and butt!
Desk exercises. While seated, perform some exercises to help strengthen and tighten your muscles. Contract your abdominals (tummy muscles) for 30 seconds while breathing naturally. Perform this a number of times throughout the day.
Do things you enjoy. Don’t feel you need to do exercises that you don’t enjoy. Pick something that you find fun e.g. swimming, rollerblading, skipping, rock climbing, cycling. Everyone is different so pick something that you enjoy.
