Have fun while you work out!

Sometimes it is hard to find the motivation to put in a good workout. For me, after long busy days it can be hard to push myself to exercise. I've found that finding ways to raise my heart rate without it feeling like exercise torture can be a lot more fun and just as satisfying as putting in time on the treadmill.

It has been beautiful outside lately so take some time to enjoy it. Take a bike ride with your friends to Santana Row or into San Jose. Go on a hike in the Los Altos hills. Take a yoga or pilates class with your friends. Sign up for salsa lessons or zumba. Swim a couple laps at the Santa Clara pool. Play catch on Bellomy field. Exercise doesn't always have to mean blood, sweat, and tears. It can be enjoyable and you will feel great after too!
