How can I stay active in the summer heat?
You must always stay hydrated. Drink plenty of water and other clear liquids. No what the temperature is outside and don't try to over do it when it's extremely hot outside. Playing in the sprinkers, swimming and other water activities will help cool you off.
I haven't been active for years, is it safe for me to start now?
No matter what age you are it's never too late to start being active!! When you are starting out though, it is always important to start slow so you don't put too much strain on your body. At first its good to start off slow trying to do something for 30 minutes a day for five days a week. This could be riding a bike at a
lower rate or just walking. This will help your body get used to working out, and things will become easier as you go on.
I find it hard to make myself want to stay healthy and be active.
Staying healthy and being active can be a hard thing to do at first, but you need to make it fun for yourself.
- Set out a schedule of new things you want to try. This will make it more fun. Those things you have always wanted to try but never got around to.
- Go for a hike on your favorite trail.
How do I find time to stay fit?
If you don't have time for exercise, look to combine it with something that is already apart of your schedule. Take walking the dog for example. Doing this can be great exercise. Also, if you are still tight on time, look at breaking down the exercise into three 10 minute periods.
