Stay on Track - Keep Getting in Shape

Just because the weather is lousy and you might dread even the thought of getting outside for your daily walk or run - Never Fear! You can stay indoors and get your heart rate pumping. You can get some great cardio in without even leaving the house.

Do you have a jump rope? Jumping rope is great for your heart and lungs. And your legs and abs. It helps your sense of balance.

Remember the good old jumping jacks we all were forced to do in Middle School P.E?
They are a great way to get your heart pumping! And help you burn more calories for hours to come!

Who says you need an expensive gym membership to start getting in shape? You can workout right in the comfort of your own home. Without driving to the gym. Or braving the cold.

Walking or jogging in place - bring those knees up high - will kick-start your heart and help you get that daily exercise.

Don't forget to keep eating healthy during these frigid winter months. And do whatever you can to get your heart pumping and lungs working harder! If you are wanting to drop a few pounds this year - the quickest way to lose weight is with daily exercise. And healthy eating.

Start getting in shape fast and you'll be on the road to better health and a longer happier life!
