Some days it feels like you barely have time to stop and breath, let
alone to fit in a workout! With the fast-paced lifestyle that so many of
us live today finding time to exercise often gets pushed to the back
burner. The good news is that you can still squeeze a workout in now
matter how busy your day. Here are some tips on fitting exercise into a
busy life.
Break Up Your Workout
Working out for 5-10 minutes at a time several times a day can still give you as good of results as doing one bigger workout all at once. A lot of times it is much easier to find a few small chunks of time each day rather than one large one. See if you can squeeze in a quick 5 minute workout in the morning, one when you get home from work and another fast one before bed.

Move More
You can still get the benefit of exercise without having to have a set workout time or routine that you do each day. Instead, focus on making yourself move more during the day. Simple things like parking further away from the store so you have to walk a little more and taking the stairs at work can really make a big difference in your daily calorie burn.

Stuck in traffic? Try squeezing and holding your stomach muscles or your buttocks. You can even do this at the office while you are sitting in your chair at your desk. Really focus on using those muscles and you can get a great isometric workout that can start to lift your rear and shape your stomach.
