THERESA:
Today in her Daily News column, Kimberly writes about the importance of mixing up your exercise routine. I gotta admit, I'm really bad about this. For decades, I've been going out jogging, I enjoy it, I do some weight training and I haven't done anything much different in years. Running is just so efficient for me timewise, and I love how I feel when I do it and it gives me my favorite excuse to get outside and enjoy the scenery. It's never gotten boring for me. Twenty years ago I did aerobics, then I took circuit training classes that wore me out and I was into yoga for about five minutes before deciding that wasn't for me. I love playing tennis, but without joining an expensive club, it's a challenge to set aside time to play and find partners at just the right level. What about the rest of you? Are you good about getting the variety you need to stay fit?
KIMBERLY: There are many affordable health clubs these days and some cost as little as $30.00 a month. That's less than a dollar a day. A dollar a day investment for your most significant asset. Many insurance companies also offer reimbursement up to 50 percent, and organizations like Global Fit also offer discounts to participating members.
On the other hand, if you don't like gyms you could add resistance and flexibility training outdoors during your run. Use the park benches for pushups, dips, sit-ups and do lunges, squats, polymerics, etc on the grass. You can add bands, jump rope, medicine balls and other portable fitness equipment to keep it interesting. Stretching out doors can also be a glorious experience.
LAURIE:
I do try to vary things. I get bored with stuff after a year or so. Unfortunately, I usually just stop doing anything, get good and out of shape and THEN try something new.
YVONNE W: I vary my workouts. There are a variety of exercises I use to stay in shape.
I also change the intensity of my workouts. I tend to push myself, for instance Saturday I was in salsa class for three hours.
Yesterday morning I was in a step class, with a different instructor than my Saturday morning class. After that I took a meringue aerobic class. I've become addicted to a device called the "bun and thigh roller." The device is just another way to achieve the results I get from squats. Actually, I'm getting much better results and there doesn't seem to be stress on my knees and lower back. But I'm no expert.
Where do you take salsa lessons?
Posted by: Kimberly on October 27, 2004 01:16 PMThe Atrium in Pennsauken or La Luna in Bensalem are two good places to get lessons. Both have Web sites: http://www.atriumdance.com/ for Atrium, http://www.lalunadancestudio.com/ for la Luna.
Posted by: Laurie on October 27, 2004 01:18 PMTheresa, have you ever biked?
Posted by: Jenice on October 27, 2004 01:21 PMI like to bike, and used to do it all the time when my kids were small and we'd ride bikes together. Right now I don't own a bike but it's on my wish list. There are great biking trails in this area, I know.
Posted by: Theresa on October 27, 2004 01:25 PMI forgot to mention that Philadelphia Sports Clubs is currently offering a "Football Widows" workout. On select Sunday and Monday nights PSC will be offering this fun-filled workout throughout the football season.
