Tune In

Ruthie’s step 70…tune in!
Help from an article.

As part of its Go Red for Women campaign, the American Heart Association (AHA) recommends toning up while you tune in to your favorite TV shows.

"Dance to the music" when you tune in to programs "like American Idol or your favorite music show," says Goldberg, Or get fired (up!) practicing "your cardio boxing while watching The Apprentice."

Slip in a little strength training by lifting sodas instead of drinking them. Use those cans or bottles as hand weights for bicep curls. Or do triceps dips from the edge of the couch. My WW leader has milk jugs she keeps at the sofa.

It doesn't matter exactly what you do, so long as you're up and active. Aim for at least 15 minutes. But who knows? If you get really engrossed, you just might outlast the last survivor.

I also recommend put some good rocking music on. I always feel this put s a spring in your step and helps you dance through your housework. Some of that work needs to be enjoyable, don’t you think?

Keep on keeping on……making better choices for a healthier you!
