Finding the Fun in Fitness in the New Year

By Brandi Goodman 

Fitness goals should be on everyone's priority list in the new year. Your physical health can play a major role in your overall well-being. Work to improve your strength and you'll notice better posture, increased stamina, and the ability to move more. Just be sure to find the fun in fitness so you stay motivated to keep up with it.

Explore Nature as You Walk

A walk around the block may not seem like much fun. You'll see the same houses and sights you've been looking at for a while. Walk through a park or nature area and it will be a lot more enjoyable. Exploring nature as you walk can help you to boost your fitness while also clearing your mind. You can take in the beautiful sights of the flowers, trees, and plants surrounding you as you burn calories.

Try a New Activity

Rock climbing, kayaking, martial arts, and more activities are on the list of available workout options. Try a new activity so you get to have a whole new experience while getting fit. You may just find something you truly enjoy and want to continue. If you're unsure of trying something new like this, go with a friend. It could make the experience all the better.

Play a Game

What's more fun than a game? Think back to your childhood and how you felt jumping rope with friends, playing hopscotch, or kicking a ball around. Playing a game alone or with others can give you a great workout all while keeping you entertained. You can even use game systems, such as the Wii or PlayStation. The Wii Fit allows you to play mini games that get your full body involved. PlayStation Move gets you up on your feet as well. 

Dance While You Clean

Dancing provides an excellent workout. You feel like you're having fun and doing your own thing but you're really exercising your body in the process. Dance while you clean to help make the chore more bearable. Turn up the music and let the rhythm flow through you as you move around the house getting things accomplished. You can burn hundreds of calories in the process.

Always find the fun in fitness so you stay motivated to continue getting the exercise you need. Your body needs exercise so your muscles and joints stay strong. You will also decrease your risk for many diseases. With some fun options in mind you can work out in a way that's enjoyable.
