Time. We can't get enough of it. Even the smallest workout sessions require time to fit into even the busiest of schedules. It's also easy to lose motivation, especially if you haven't found ways to exercise that you enjoy.
However, you can never be too busy to exercise, and there are many enjoyable methods to do it. All you have to do now is devise a workout routine that works for you.
It might be challenging to include exercise into your routine if you have a busy life. This is especially true if you are attempting to combine your career, personal life, family responsibilities, or studies. If you are really busy, you may feel compelled to spend your leisure time doing something you like. Hence, exercise may not be at the top of your priority list.
How to exercise when you are short of time
Even a modest bit of exercise can have a significant impact on your physical and mental health, so it's crucial to schedule it in.
So, how can you fit in exercise when your life is so hectic? No matter how busy you are, here are seven methods to keep your exercise in your daily life.
1) Walk when possible
Walking is by far the most underappreciated form of exercise. Are you going out for a Sunday coffee? Going for a stroll can help you save money on gas. You can also increase your daily steps by parking further away and walking instead of talking on the phone.
Take your dog for a walk with a leash. Your body, as well as your dog, will appreciate you! You don't have to stick to your chair if you're glued to your phone for work calls. Make talking and walking a habit.
2) Ditch the elevator
The elevator may take you higher, but it won't raise your heart rate. If you can, take the stairs, even if it's only for a floor or two. These can also be active steps!
Elevators are convenient when you need to get to the 10th floor, but using the steps whenever possible can improve your health. You can even get some exercise by walking up and down the stairs in your own home or apartment building.
3) Dancing
Dancing is a pleasant and easy technique to exercise in that we often engage in without meaning to do so. If you're out on the weekend and have the opportunity to dance, take advantage of it.
It's a terrific way to get your body moving and your heart rate up while having a good time. You can even dance at home with your housemates, partner, or family while listening to the radio or listening to music.
4) Work commutes
It would be ideal to walk, run, or cycle to work. It's a wonderful time to work on your abs, whether you're driving or taking public transportation. You won't have to perform any sit-ups on the railway carriage floor, so don't worry.
Simply brace your abs as hard as you can for 10 seconds while sitting. With a powerful muscle contraction, you can make this pretty difficult. Repeat 5–10 times.
5) While cooking
The cooking time for most meals is 15–30 minutes. Instead of watching the pot boil, you can do anything else. You can do some high-intensity intervals during this period. This includes skipping, running on the spot, bodyweight workouts like mountain climbers or burpees, or even kettlebell swings if you have one.
Alternate between two or three powerful movements. 30 seconds of labor followed by 30 seconds of rest is an excellent format. Rep 10–15 times more. Dinner will be served once you've finished!
6) Don’t just wait
When we are at home, we frequently find ourselves waiting for something to happen. This includes waiting for a load of laundry to finish, the kettle to boil, or in between TV commercials.
You can use these downtimes to conduct little exercises like skipping, squats, or sit-ups. Exercising for short periods of time throughout the day is a good way to stay active without having to devote a lot of your free time to it.
7) Lunchtime exercising
Exercising during lunch may be unrealistic for some individuals. However, if you have an hour for lunch, you should be able to squeeze in some exercise while still eating. Eating at lunch should be your top priority. However, you might be able to split your hours in half and use the first half to go for a walk, jog, stretch, or perform another form of feasible exercise.
It is critical to get up and exercise your body on a frequent basis if you spend the majority of your day sitting at a computer. It's not necessary to exercise for long lengths of time; what matters is that you move your muscles and body while raising your heart rate.
