“I learned encouraging news that little bouts of exercise — as few as 10 minutes in duration — can add up to significant gains in fitness.

Unfortunately, it’s the little bites eaten here and there above our daily caloric needs that can add up to sizable weight gain over time.”

This has a strange, and fun analogy to a todo I got from my Tax preparer at our meeting the other day.  He wanted me to get the mileage for when I use my car to support my wife’s professional art career.  “At $0.58 per mile, it can really add up over a year.” True stuff!

It does not take much to make a significant impact on our health.  The trick is to make it a habit.  Including little bouts of exercise and caloric reduction in your day can go a long way toward reaching your fitness goals and maintaining a strong and healthy body. (Which is your birthright, BTW!)

Some tips from random sources:

• Drink a full glass of water first thing in the morning, before you go to the bathroom.
• Park a couple extra blocks from your destination.
• Kegel when waiting in line, driving or sitting.  No one can see you do it, and it’s good for you!
• Put your shoes on standing up.
• Have some coleslaw with your burger instead of fries.
• Pause for a couple of minutes halfway through your lunch to see if you are satisfied.  If so, save the rest for dinner.

Finding little ways to sneak in extra movement, and sneak out some calories can be an engaging and fun game to play against yourself.

What are your ideas?  Let me know in the comment section.
