sonia's flingo on exercise
I don't exercise. I mean, it's not like I sit on my ass all day. But I don't go to the gym just so I can work out.
Why not, you ask? Well, it's simple, really. First of all, I don't fancy waiting in line so that I can use the ellipticals. Second, I don't like things where you can't win, as unless I'm missing something, you can't win at lifting weights. Third and most important is that if I am going to exercise at all, I would prefer some scenery, maybe a lake and some trees, not a bunch of other sweaty people exercising. Gross.
I think there is more than one way to get your exercise in for the day, and sometimes I wonder if the general public forgets that. For example, if your local gym is three miles away, why don't you run there instead of getting in your car and driving? I know, I know, some people don't run. If you prefer spinning, go for a bike ride instead. I promise, the view is alot nicer that way.
My grandfather was incredibly healthy into his eighties. And every day, he would walk two miles to the grocery store, buy two gallons of milk, and walk back to our house. Even that is exercise.
So if you really feel yourself lacking in the exercise category, try to look at your daily routine for some easy ways to add it to your schedule. Trust me, you will find a way.
