What types of exercise are not overwhelming?
Asked by janese23 on Jan 11, 2010 in Fitness



 I really want to lose weight but rarely have the urge to exercise.  What types of exercises can I begin doing that  will not overwhelm me?


Answer

Exercise is more than using cardiovascular equipment or weights at the gym.  Walking is actually the most popular form of exercise in the U.S.  Depending on where you live and your schedule, you could walk in several short intervals to do your errands or to go to-and-from the car to your office, or walk at lunchtime with a pal, or don't walk at all if you don't like it.  Basketball, golf, bowling, dancing, gardening, and yoga are examples of exercise too.  The point is to think outside the box.  Get ideas about getting started with exercise from the Guide to Sports Medicine at About.com.
