One of the most important thing in
life is to have a sound health, but staying fit might be somehow difficult for
mom who always stay busy at home doing one thing or the other. In the opposite
view fitness is a thing that mom need to stay agile, stress-free, movable and
highly mobile.
One of the setbacks when you workout
at home using exercise equipment is the difficulty to schedule a proper and
regular fitness routine. This is particularly true to work or stay at home moms
who have to juggle their time between doing home chores, taking care of the
kids and the spouse, and running errands. Sometimes, the extra-curricular
activities add to the tightness of schedule that all these occupations leave
the home fitness equipment just lying and collecting dust at one corner of the
home.
If you are one of these individuals
who cannot easily find time to stick to a proper fitness routine, you can still
workout even without employing any fitness equipment. Here are some quick and
simple ideas how to keep that body healthy and fit all year round.
1)
Work and Exercise with
your Kids
If you have kids and a baby, take
this as an advantage rather than a disadvantage to your workout routine. Put
your baby in his pushchair and together with the other kids, have a little trip
at the park or just around the block. Brisk walking is a good cardio exercise,
which keeps you feeling refreshed and relaxed afterwards. Plus, it is good for
the kids too.
Also, you can get everybody moving by
tidying the kitchen, the living room, and the bedrooms at least for five
minutes daily. Have fun by setting a timer, putting music on, and get
everybody, including you, picking up the clatters, books, toys, clothes, shoes,
and so on and so forth. It is good as little cardio exercise for you and your
kids. There are many things you can do with your kids that will keep you up and
running. And in the process, you keep your physical aspect fit and healthy with
those little physical exercises.
If the kids go to school, you can use
this again to keep your fitness routine by walking them to and fro. Besides
exercising, you are spending quality time with them. Plus, you make them feel
great and in excellent mood before entering the school. Never use the car for
this spoils your goal of keeping fitness routine. Unless, of course, if the
school has a long distance. In this case, what you can do is to park the car a
little far and walk the rest of the distance.
2)
Use your Time Alone
When you are alone at home, make your
list of 5-minute activities which will keep you occupied and exerting physical
effort. It can be as simple as climbing the stairs up and down, stretching,
running to and fro the house, gardening, watering the plants, laundering the
clothes, washing the dishes, and a lot, lot more activities. You can go to the
park and just walk around and catch fresh air. There are endless activities you
can do. The good thing is it does not only achieve your goal of burning
calories daily but it allows you to accomplish the household chores at the same
time.
Of course, you need to take rest as
well. It will help a lot if you get a good amount of sleep hours so your body
and mind are refreshed daily. Plus, you must bear in mind that eating healthy
foods is the key to completing your goal of keeping fit and healthy. Be sure
that the food is both good for you and your kids too.

(3) Take annual health
tests
What I want you to know here is that, just as you must service
your car or other automobile equipment so also is necessary for you take
yourself to health consultants for necessary check for any possible ailment
within your physiological system. Annual physical examinations are generally
covered by health insurance or you can also get it for free or at a minimum
cost.
Routine tests are critically important to detect health problems
at an early stage before they grow into a serious health issue.
(4) Be kind
to yourself
Before anybody else the first person you can behave well to is
yourself, because how you treat yourself and present yourself will determine
how others will behave to you.
Treat yourself every now and then. These can just be simple
pampering such as getting your hair done at a posh salon, or scheduling a
massage appointment.
Break away from the demands and pressures of daily living and
allow yourself to slow down, recharge and find temporary relief. Part of been
kind to yourself is to think good of yourself, wishing yourself the best in all
circumstances and other good thoughts.
if you like it you can pass it on to other people.........Thanks, I will be very happy to see your comments.
