There's a difference between working and "working out", but of course everyone already knows that. But what happens when your "work" becomes your "workout" for the day?
I'm currently doing some work around the house, scrapping, scrubbing, painting and cleaning up after. Up and down the step ladder more times then I can count, bracing myself so as not to fall (working those calf muscles for sure), reaching overhead to clean the ceiling or paint, stretching to reach places maybe just a little out of my reach, and lets not forget the up/down motion of painting with a paintbrush or roller. In my book, this is a work out, not just work.
It's hard to log a work out when you aren't really doing a set exercise plan or going for a walk or run. How do you measure what calories you've actually burned, how much toning you've done for your core and large muscle groups? Is this work really a work out?
I'm very sorry to say, although you are working, you still need to work out. Your body needs continuous movement, like in a workout , to show any benefits of your motion. It's recommended that you get 150 minutes a week of aerobic exercise and two sessions of strength training to keep a happy and healthy body. With the workouts provided by the Beachbody Challenge Program, you'll meet these requirements without a problem. Just following your coach each and every day will strengthen you body and mind, you'll feel like a new, stronger person that your body will attest to.
If you think that this training program will work for you and you'd like more information, please feel free to contact me at marv131@beachbodycoach.com and we can talk about your "working" out.
Have an awesome day! Thanks for reading!
