When you travel and you get delayed in the airport or get there a little early, use it as an opportunity to exercise. Don't sit and wait for your flight; walk instead. Get in as many steps as possible before your flight because you will most likely be sitting for hours once you board.

Wearing a pedometer, Fitbit, or other smart device is an easy and effective way to stay mindful of your daily activity. Aim for 10,000 steps a day. If you are limited physically, try challenging yourself to do as many steps as you can.

Staying active will burn calories and keep your metabolism up all day. It also keeps you in the right healthy mindset for your trip.

Remaining active also helps relieve travel stress. It is good for physical and mental health.

Stay active and healthy!

Don't skip your workout if you are busy and can't make it to the gym. You can use resistance bands to strengthen your leg muscles at home.

One effective exercise for the back of your legs is the resistance band leg kickback.

Put the resistance band around your mid-calves. Keep good posture throughout the exercise. Keep the crown of your head up toward the ceiling. Hold on to something stable for balance if needed.

Press one leg behind you and lift it slightly without arching your back. Toes face straight ahead. For a challenge, hold for a three-count. Now, lower your leg back to the starting position. Keep tension on the band

Work your way up to 15 repetitions on each side. Do 1- 3 sets.

Start shaping your legs and rear end at home today with the resistance band kickback!

(Always check with your doctor before starting any exercise routine.)

If you think you don't have time to exercise enough to make a difference in your health, think again! It takes only about 20 minutes of moderate exercise daily to improve your health. You could split it up into 10 minutes in the morning and 10 minutes in the evening. You could also think of it as 2 1/2 hours a week.

When you think of it that way, it sounds like there is no time for excuses, but there is time to fit in enough exercise to be healthier! Schedule exercise into your day.

As stressful and challenging as things may get, regular exercise is one of the best things we can do for ourselves.

So, no matter how busy you find yourself, be sure to fit in exercise. Exercise injects “feel good” hormones into your system and lifts your mood.

Go for a walk, run, lift weights or use your exercise tubing. Whatever you do for exercise, don’t stop. Continuing to exercise will help you feel so much better physically and emotionally.

Gift yourself regular exercise!

Exercise doesn't have to only happen in a gym. Plan an outdoor run, bike ride or walk with friends. The fresh air and beautiful scenery are good for the soul.

If you live in a colder climate, the upcoming snowy season present an opportunity for outdoor winter activities like cross-country skiing, Ice skating, and snowshoeing! Take advantage of these opportunities to change it up!

Clear your head, meet up with a friend and get in your activity all at the same time!

Seasonal outdoor activities can keep things interesting and fun.

Taking a fall can cause a significant injury. This is a great reason to work on balance training, especially as we age. Danny and I often have our clients work on balance training in the studio. You can easily do balance training at home, with no extra equipment needed.

Do some of your upper body exercises while balancing on one leg. For instance, you can perform a tubing or dumbbell Shoulder Press while standing on one leg. Do two sets. One on each leg.

Some tips for doing this exercise are. Keep your posture aligned, tighten your core (including your glutes), and focus on something straight ahead.

Work on your balance regularly as part of your workout program.

The food you eat and the exercise you do are an important part of losing weight, but did you know that the path to weight loss or even leading a healthier lifestyle, starts with a healthy state of mind. Stop the negative chatter in your head.

Tackle your own inner struggles and emotions, as the first step to healthy weight loss. If you don't face these issues, they will halt your attempts every time. Find out what is holding you back. Then you will have cleared the path to successful weight loss. Seek counseling, if need be.

You have the power to overcome the obstacles that are stopping your forward progress. You are worthy. You are able.

End the war you are having with yourself and move forward to a healthier lifestyle!

It is a good idea to mix up your workouts. Cross-training is a mix of exercises and is an effective way to stimulate your muscles and help avoid overuse injuries.

Daily repeats of the same workout can cause injury, especially as we age. So, instead, do strength training one day and flexibility exercises the next. Run or walk one day, and ride your bike the next day.

Use cross-training to stress different muscles on different days. Doing this will ensure that you don't strain your muscles and joints.

This way, you can keep yourself active for a lifetime!

Do you work your core regularly? Working your core muscles is essential to maintaining a strong, healthy body.

A strong core means a healthier back, better posture and balance. A strong core also helps with deep breathing and getting enough oxygen. Your "core" includes more than just your abdominal muscles. It also includes all the muscles in your hips and the muscles that run up and down your back.

There are many ways to work your core muscles. You could include balance training in your workouts to engage the core during other exercises. You could also do crunches and mat exercises to focus on your core directly.

Do your focused core work at least twice a week. Perform 20 reps of at least four different exercises that challenge your muscles. If you have time, more frequency is even better. Unlike the muscles in other parts of your body, working your core muscles every day without injury is okay. They are high-endurance muscle fibers.

Keep a strong core and stay healthy.
