Winter can seem to drag on; and with the cold and abundance of comfort food, it can be tempting for us to just hibernate when swimsuit season is nowhere in sight. Below are a few quick 30-minute workouts that anyone can do indoors to kick your cold weather slump.http://www.active.com/fitness/articles/30-minute-indoor-workout-to-beat-the-cold-weather-blues
Especially during the holiday season, we are busy and often can hardly find time to sit down let alone work out. Luckily there are a few ways that you can make your everyday life a little more active. Often, working out in short time increments can be the most effective way to have a more active lifestyle. Examples are listed in the link below. http://www.prevention.com/fitness/fitness-tips/fitness-25-fast-and-easy-ways-fit-10-minutes-exercise
10 for Life
We all want to feel better, be healthier, and live longer. Adding regular exercise to your life is part of that prescription. Our health and wellness teams here at Ohio State created the 10 for Life videos to show you how you can make this happen in short, 10 minute segments. Yes, 10 minutes of moderate exercise does count! Don’t worry if you aren’t physically active now. You can start with as little as 10 minutes a day of moderate intensity aerobic activity and build up to the recommended 150 minutes per week. Each of the 10 for Life videos shows you how to perform 3 to 4 exercises in a real OSU work setting.
