"Use September and October to really focus on you health and be in great shape before the busy holiday season," advises Kathie Davis, executive director of IDEA Health & Fitness Assosiation. If you have young, school-age kids, walk them to and from school, she suggests, adn during athletic practices, go for a run instead of sitting in the bleachers.
With or With-out children at home, says Davis, "Fall is a good time to commit or recommit to an exercise program."Vacation season is over and we tend to settle into new routines. She recommends:
✗ Find something you like to do, whether it's dance,Pilates,yoga,martial arts classes, or going for a walk once or twice a week with a friend or as a family.
✗ Explore different types of fitness activities at local community center and health clubs.
✗ Check-out indoor boot camps or outdoor ones if the weather is good.
✗ If home exercise is your preference, try different videos by renting, going online, using cable fitness or on-demand channels,
or consider getting (and using on a regular basis) some exercise equipment.
✗ Try working with a Personal Trainer, alone or with one or two other people. (they usually give trial offers like one month free.. call your local fitness place and ask them)
