In a pinch and don’t have time to workout? You can easily squeeze in bits of exercise throughout your day no matter where you’re at or what you’re doing. As a young adult, we’re always on the go and always have something to do. That is why these 4 fun ways to excercise throughout the day are so helpful!
Getting Ready For The Day.
Start your morning off with a small leg workout. When you’re getting ready in the morning, instead of walking everywhere do lunges! Then, when you’re standing in front of the mirror brushing your teeth or doing your hair do a few squats to really get your legs pumping.
Also, I always make sure to fill my Contigo AUTOSEAL® Chill Spill-proof water bottle before heading out the door. It’s great because my water will stay cold for up to 28 hours, thanks to Thermalock™ vacuum insulation.
Sitting At Your Desk.
No matter if you’re a student or working a full-time job you can easily do some small exercises and stretches at your desk. The simple action of tightening your muscles and slowly releasing them creates a mini workout.
I also make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep me hydrated. I probably fill up my Contigo AUTOSEAL® Chill Spill-proof water bottle once or twice while I’m at work.
Sitting for long periods of time can wreak havoc on your back and neck. Take a few moments to roll out your neck and stretch your back. One of my favorite stretches is to interlace my fingers and stretch my arms out straight, pulling away from my back.
Running Errands At Target.
When you’re running errands at Target, opt for a basket instead of shopping cart. This will engage more of your upper body strength as you start filling up your basket. When one arm gets tired, switch to the next.
Make sure to carry your basket in different ways. One-handed straight down, in the crook of your arm, or both arms straight either in front or behind you.
While you’re at Target, make sure to pick up the Contigo AUTOSEAL® Chill Bottle (you can find them in the housewares aisle). Target currently has a limited time offer of $19.99 for these water bottles. Each bottle has a carry handle for easy transport while running errands or walking from class to class. My favorite feature is the easy one-handed drinking with the push of a button. (It has auto seal technology!!)
Target, specifically, has three exclusive colors! Matte Black w/Iced Aqua, Stainless Steel w/ Monaco, and Very Berry. Although I was loving the matte black options, my heart was set on the Very Berry shade.
While Binge-Watching TV.
I think we’re all guilty of this at some point in our lives. If you catch yourself binge-watching TV and feel guilty for not working out, no worries. Hop off the couch and start doing some yoga – perfect to do before going to bed! Another option is to do some crunches or push-ups during commercial breaks. Whichever you choose you’re sure to get in some great exercises to finish off your day.
