"I don't have time to exercise." I'd be a very wealthy woman if I had a dollar for every client who has made this claim. As a trainer and new mom, I completely understand—our lives are busier than ever, and even though we know that exercise is essential to our longevity and a healthy lifestyle, it still falls to the bottom of the to-do list. To get toned, burn fat, and make working out a priority, you must change your mindset.

1. Park your car a little further away.

This one couldn't be any simpler. While you've been programmed to look for the closest parking spot, defy this instinct and park a few blocks away. Why? It's the same idea as taking the stairs in that it forces you to be more physically active without requiring you to exert any real effort. Consider how many more steps you'd get in if you did this every day!

2. Investigate your surroundings.

Exploring your neighbourhood is a great way to reacquaint yourself with it (or get to know it better if you recently moved) whether you live in a big city or a small town. Walking, biking, or running can all be used to accomplish this. What's the best part? Along the way, you might meet new neighbours, take a different scenic route, or discover a new favourite coffee shop. So put on your sneakers and get moving!

3. Use your lunch break to your advantage.

First and foremost, you deserve a lunch break, whether it's 10 minutes or an hour, so take it. Second, use it as an excuse to get out of the house and move your body. You can walk around the block a few times to take in the scenery, run a quick errand, or grab a delicious lunch. Furthermore, it will provide you with the mental break you require to recharge and be more productive for the rest of the day.

4. Participate in physical activities with your children.

Babies and children require movement to develop their muscles and coordination. Furthermore, they must exert energy throughout the day in order to sleep more soundly during naps and at bedtime. So why don't you join them? Physically, mentally, and emotionally, everyone wins. There is no better way to teach your children the importance of staying active while also developing a stronger bond with them. The park is always a fun place to visit.

5. Hike and let your soul heal.



There's a reason why it's said that "nature heals." Hiking is fantastic for using nature's beauty to divert your attention away from your cardio workout. The trails also provide a clear path, so there is no going back. Furthermore, if you choose the right one, you will be climbing towards a breathtaking view that you will not want to miss. When you reach the top or end of your trail, you will feel incredibly refreshed and accomplished. After all, nature has been shown to reduce stress and boost mood—so get out there and enjoy it.
