Today I ran across an article over at ThinkSlim that suggested an easy way to lose weight during TV watching is to do an easy chore during commercial breaks like vacumming or unloading the dishwasher. This got me to thinking of some of the little exercises that we can do to still fit our shows into our schedule, while getting fit :-)
- Do tricep pushups during the commercial break. On the edge of your couch or coffee table, simply raise and lower your body weight.
- If your house has stairs, take two or three trips up and down. If you can find something you need to bring upstairs, even better!
- Stand up and walk in place. Any movement is better than none, so try to walk during commercials, and then
- Try interval training! Try to do an exercise for every 30 or 60 second commercial. Try jumping jacks for 30 seconds, then switch it up to push-ups, etc.
- Butt clenches! If you can't get yourself off the couch, simply squeeze those cheeks together :-)
Do you have any others you would like to add?
