How have you structured your environment to promote exercise?

I always put my workout clothes in visible areas, as well as my weights and other equipment. I also have many inspirational quotes hung up around my room.

I have put my yoga apps on every device and may under the couch in the lounge. I have bought bodygroove DVD by Misty. So daggy ( means not at all cool in Australia) but so much fun and walk up stairs in stead of taking the lift. (Elevators) I pick up things off the floor bybsquats and do the fabulous app for a quick exercise and I put an alarm at 12:30 every day to do yoga- mostly that doesn’t happen but sometimes it does for 5 minutes. Also I just go outside that always brings up some kind of activity

I haven’t really changed my environment, but rather my motivation. Every morning, I take some time to look out my window and think about how whatever comes my way, I’ll be ready and able to handle it. This gives me the strength to exercise, and to enjoy my life more fully.

Added my quick morning routine to my already established morning habit of watching my son. I’m using the 10 min I have in the evening before everyone else gets home to go for a run

I have invested in a home gym. For the more expensive and larger machine, I found a gently used elliptical. Knowing I’ve invested in it has provided additional motivation to the benefit of integrating cardio into my routine. I make it a priority to get on it as early in my day as I can since I don’t especially ENJOY cardio, but the way I feel afterwards and knowing I’ve accomplished an important goal is enjoyable for the remainder of the day. I also utilize compact resistance bands for toning exercises. A little goes a long way for toning if you’re consistent and eating healthy. A benefit to the resistance bands is how easy it is to travel with them, so I can stay toned away from my home gym as well. My absolute pleasure is yoga. I researched and found a comfortable mat, non-skid yoga socks and regularly experiment with new yoga DVDs through my public library. It took me a while to find that first one that I looked forward to, so dont give up because you may not like a particular instructor, teaching style or yoga method. There is a lot of variety out there.

A healthy and fit lifestyle has already been part of my life. It just so happened that I have been so busy with my career that I actually neglected my physical well-being. Fabulous has given me an opportunity to work on my morning activities to introduce exercise back into my routine. Baby steps I must say. I am quite sure 10 - 15 minutes for 5 days a week won’t be that difficult. In fact, by the time your body gets used to it, you will eventually level up the intensity and duration of your exercise. At some point, you will realize that you are embracing a fit and healthy lifestyle. The keys really are determination, will, and GRIT to start and the ability to sustain and integrate it as part of your lifestyle! Let me know how else I could help or motivate you.

I try to buy healthy snacks and I try to work activity into my everyday routine. For example, taking the stairs and doing at least 10 mins of exercise a day

I keep a set of adjustable dumbbells, resistance bands, and a yoga mat in my room. That’s more than enough equipment to get a good workout!

Yes I have my shoes and clothes ready and my dogs always ready and excited for walks in the morning so I must give them long walks

I have not structureel my environment for nu exercises.. I use the little space on top of my stairs. I Just do some strechting and a little running without changing place. I do not need any equipment
