When the Surgeon General warns about the dangers of inactivity, you know it's serious. Even after the 1996 warning, 25% of Americans remain sedentary, and 60% fail to exercise regularly, according to the CDC.
Fitness enthusiasts can benefit from the Surgeon General's "Healthy People" report, which recommends an hour of exercise a day. While this serves as a guideline, any physical activity can lead to health benefits. However, there are many other reasons to stay active.
Physical therapist Janet Kneiss suggests that even moderate exercise could significantly reduce injuries. She notes that many patients seek quick fixes for back and neck problems rather than embracing exercise.
According to Janet, the key is to change our mindset about exercise. Instead of seeing it as a chore, we should focus on the enjoyment it can bring.
How to Make Exercise Enjoyable:
1. Find Activities You Love: Doing activities you enjoy increases the likelihood of sticking with them. Whether it's walking, running, watching TV on a treadmill, trying kickboxing, or exploring martial arts, enjoying what you do keeps your routine fresh and exciting.
2. Add Variety: Shake up your routine by alternating activities. For example, follow a morning walk with afternoon stretching or resistance training. Variety keeps things interesting and maintains motivation.
3. Schedule Your Exercise: Treat exercise like an important appointment by writing it on your calendar. If you're new to exercise, start with 10-15 minutes and gradually increase your sessions. For exercise lovers, listen to your body's energy cycles and schedule workouts during peak times.
4. Aim for Your Personal Best: One friend's journey to running a 5K race offers inspiration. At 40, despite being overweight and asthmatic, he trained diligently, lost weight, and completed his first race. His philosophy: enjoy the journey, live in the moment, and focus on your personal best.
The key takeaway? Focus on doing what's fun and exciting for you. Learn about health and fitness, and strive to be better than you were yesterday, as Dr. Wayne Dyer wisely advises: "I don't want to be better than anybody, I just want to be better than I was yesterday." By following this mindset, you can inspire yourself and others on the path to a healthier lifestyle.
