I thought I'd share one of the strategies I found especially useful in getting exercise more ingrained into my life. Every so often (about four or five times a year, I think), we're challenged to do some "new PA" (PA = physical activity). This could just be doing something you normally do in a different way: So if you always walk alone, walking with a walking partner would be considered "new." However, most of the time, this is a challenge to look into a completely new form of PA, and try it. Variety plays a major role in keeping PA interesting. Over time, I've used this strategy to add kayaking and The Firm to my standard reperatoire of PA.
So I thought I'd challenge the folks here to try something new.
Why not try something you've never tried before? or try doing something you've done before in a new way? Have you ever tried yoga? If you do yoga, but have never done Viniyasa or Ashtanga, why not try that? Does a friend do a Tae Bo tape she likes? Why not try it?
