Did you know that cardio exercises such as walking and running will help you a lot in losing weight?
Running can help a 145-lb person to burn 300 calories (at 5.2 mph) in 30 minutes. Brisk walking (walking as if you are trying to catch a bus) can help you burn about 180 calories in 30 minutes. Make sure to keep you head up, your back straight and swing your arms while doing so.
However certain factors such as the unpredictable weather could prevent you from doing these activity and hampering your way to fitness.
If you can’t run or walk one solution you can do is enroll in a gym with a treadmill facility. Did you know that doing a medium intensity workout in a Treadmill for an hour will help you loose 700 calories!
Going to the gym is one option buying your own treadmill is another. Aside from being able to use the machine anytime at your own convenience you save from paying gym fees and membership. You don’t have to worry about fitting a visit to the gym in your schedule or even worry about how you look and what you wear when you have your own treadmill at home. You can watch TV while on your treadmill and share the use of the machine with family members.
I know they are expensive but I found a great deal Fitnessblowout.com. They have machines for sale as low as $67 a month (Php 3,000+) for two years interest free! But you better hurry because this sale will only be available in less than 15 hours so grab the opportunity now!

The most difficult part of losing wight for me is finding the time to do it- without neglecting my kids. As I was reading a book this evening ( Family Fit by Dr. John E. Mayer, I had an ‘ah ha’ moment… he pointed out that I could correct this problem by inviting my kids to exercise with me. I am So excited… he has pointed out some great activities and some great ways to get my entire family excited about fitness. It is a win- win situation.
