Motivation

[RHShipper]

I just can't find it in me to get motivated to work out. Currently I have just half a ton of stuff to be doing. I'm at rehershals Tuesday to Thursday 4 - 5.30. After that I've got half a ton of work for my exams which are in like 4 weeks. And around all this I'm meant to be revising.

Alas, mebbe its just this week has been killing me. But I just can't keep up the motivation to deal with all this rubbish in school and then come back and work out.

Just wondering how everyone here deals with fitting in time to work out around everything else.

I get my workouts by going places. I walk to and from my Weight Watchers meeting (half an hour each way, walking fast, is a moderate workout), to and from the grocery store, to and from synagogue (that's a more leisurely walk, but it's just as much distance), and on other errands throughout the week. I also make a point of going for a walk every Saturday afternoon and every Sunday, when there's plenty of time to wander at will and then turn around and come home.

Walking is good for the legs, heart, lungs, and general health. It won't be a good abdominal workout, though, and it won't strengthen your upper body muscles. For that, lifting groceries, cleaning things, or playing around with children or pets usually helps. It's not high-intensity enough to really build much muscle, though, and you do want to build muscle. Muscle burns fat; fat doesn't burn fat.
