Is your workout routine getting a little stale? These 10 tips are sure to get you moving and motivated
Dance it Off. Move your body with Zumba, a dance-based fitness program that fuses aerobic moves with Latin music. Zumba works all your major muscle groups: abs, legs, glutes, and arms. Search for a class locally or buy the DVD and Zumba in your living room.
Make a Splash. Do more than just swim laps at your fitness club's pool. Work out with water dumbbells and fan paddles to tone your arms, chest and core muscles. Check your local pool, fitness club or YMCA for energizing water aerobics classes.
Melt Stress with Martial Arts. Tai chi is a martial art that combines stability and strength building movements with a focus on reducing stress and tension. Not only is it relaxing, but it also burns a fair amount of calories.
Stretch it Out. Prevent soreness and possible injury by stretching properly before and after a workout. Stretching for 5 to 10 minutes will warm up your muscles and prepare your body for a workout.
Jump it Up. Jumping rope isn't just for kids anymore. The grown-up version of jumping rope works all the major muscle groups and burns calories with every jump. Jumping rope can be done indoors or out, so it is the perfect all-season activity.
Stay in Shape with Water. Drinking water before, during and after a workout will prevent dehydration, muscle fatigue, and possible injury. Don't bother with sports drinks or "energy" drinks that contain added sugar or caffeine. Plain water is the best for your body.
Be an Inspiration. Exercising with a friend or loved one is a great way to stay motivated. Friends can help spot while you weight train, or make your time on the treadmill go much faster.
Get Out and Play. Who says you need to be inside a gym to workout? Grab some friends or family and play a sport. Football, tennis, basketball, and volleyball are fun and effective ways to burn fat and calories.
On the Ball. Use a stability ball to tone core muscles and develop core strength. Swap out your desk chair for a stability ball at work and see results in no time.
Sweet Dreams. Don't forget to get plenty of rest. It is essential to get 8 hours of sleep at night to refresh your mind and body and prepare for your next workout. - 29951
