It’s really easy to green your fitness routine. Here are my top tips:
- Develop a quick home workout. 10 -30 minute workouts are great because those of us, who are really time-challenged, don’t have an excuse! I love the Kettleworx workout for a quick killer routine.
- Try some yoga – it can literally be a few simple poses that you can practice just once or twice a week. Yoga connects your breath with your body, helping you to feel balanced, grounded and aware – just what a green girl needs. There’s an illustrated workout in all 3 of my books.
- Start doing some strenuous work at home/in your yard. Digging will get your heart rate right up there, as will washing your own car with my Rinseless Car Wash (recipe P.258 Do It Gorgeously).
- Get hold of a bicycle no matter what. I’m in love with my Electra Townie and use it at least once a day for a short trip (to the bank or cleaner). I use a backpack and my bicycle basket when I go to the grocery store.
- Duh! Seems obvious, but lacing on a pair of shoes and taking a 10-minute strenuous walk or hike can work wonders.
Whatever way you choose, don’t forget your reusable water bottle.
