Health Tip: Exercise While Watching Television
By LadyLively on August 29, 2014
If your favorite TV shows are pulling you away from your workout, why not combine the two?
The American Council on Exercise offers these suggestions:
- Ditch the remote and walk to the TV to change the channel.
- During commercial breaks, walk up and down the stairs or around the room.
- Perform resistance exercises while you watch.
- Invest in a treadmill or stationary bike.
- Perform activities that require you to stand, such as ironing your clothes.
