Workout 6/6/10 - Middle-Aged Spread

Here we go. It doesn't matter if you walk around the block, walk on a treadmill, or the more advanced can jog/run, but let's get out there and do something. Lifting weights, yoga, or other videos that help you to burn some calories are always good. We can start off slow and gradually work ourselves up to where we should be.
There was an article written about the middle-aged spread. If you have heard of me talk about this before--then just ignore this part.
* Women at a healthy weight who are not dieting should do at least an hour of moderate activity a day
* Overweight women need to work out even more to avoid gaining weight without eating less
* Brisk walking, leisurely bicycling, and golfing are all examples of moderate exercise
So, I know you probably don't like the way that it sounds, but there it is. I, personally, need to be exercising more than an hour a day. But, like I said, we can gradually work up to these numbers. Because if you are not used to working out for an hour a day-- working out for more than an hour a day could really take a toll on you and your body. So, ease into it.
I'll talk to you soon.
