Any exercise is good. With the heat and the huge distances and lack of any public transit here, you have to drive everywhere. Being used to at least walking to the end of the road, I found this really hard.
So, in order to 'move it' :roll: I..er... well never mind that.. we were talking about walking weren't we :wink: yes...hmm.
Parking as far away (except during 120 degree weather) from stores or buildings as possible. At the supermarket take back the trolley. Take the stairs rather than the elevator. In the heat of the summer I go out shopping at night. Huge big box stores are great in the summer as are shopping malls - you can walk in cool air conditioned bliss and there is lots of stuff to see. (big stores and malls were built for walking not for shopping in - did anyone else know that

I find the treadmill is boring even though we have a tv in the workout room. The best exercise of all is dance. Loud fabulous music is a must!!! Its not about losing weight so much as being strong and supple and fit. So..if you can move it... move it. I know people who say that if they cannot devote an hour a day to exercise which extends them and maintain that level for the whole time, they dont bother. That is BS...its better to do some exercise than none at all. A mix of aerobic, strengthening and stretching exercises can make you feel so much more energised. Riding a bike..walking, dancing, running, leaping about, sex, leaping about, jumping, skipping, shopping, sex, more shopping.. all great workouts for the female body!!!! :roll: :roll:
