The average working individual says he or she isn’t able to squeeze in exercise into their hectic schedules.
We can thank today’s modern-day devices and inventions for helping make our working lives less stressful, but the work itself is enough stress for us to miss out on a lot of other things that we need or want.
If you really do not have the spare time to exercise and lose weight, it is possible to do so, even if you’re doing chores around the house.
If you consider doing housework as pretty much similar to your everyday exercise, you can potentially improve the health of your heart and lungs.
You can start by toning your muscles through the simple actions of having good posture, using muscle control, and moving at a slow enough pace. Mastering these three things are a good start to making chore time essentially the same as exercise time.
Take note of these other pieces of advice:
Instead of simply bending over to pick up something that dropped, try squatting – this can also be done if you are loading or unloading the washing machine. Repeat this for several instances until it becomes second nature to you while doing chores.
If you are used to using a duster to clean the house, avoid doing so. If you are cleaning or dusting surfaces, utilize trunk twists as a way to exercise. You can exercise your upper arm when cleaning dirty windows. This is a good way for you to tone your biceps and triceps. No need to worry about saggy arms if you’re following these tips.
Tone your inner thighs and calves by doing lunges while vacuuming dirty floors and surfaces.
Once in a while you may want to not vacuum the house. Doing the old-fashioned act of carpet beating and scrubbing, as well as running up and down the stairs could help you lose weight and gain fitness.
Cap all the exercising and household work off by doing some abdominal exercises while lying down and stretching, then you can do whatever you wish to relax.
