Beginner Cardio Workouts And Your Busy Life

Obesity is on the rise in North America

Obesity is on the rise in North America. With the average work week increasing from 40 hours up to 50-60 hours a week for some of us: It's become increasingly difficult for all of us to resist the urge to eat out on a daily basis at the local McDonald's, or neighborhood pizza shop. Fast food is fine in moderation, but a busy life can easily make us feel like fast is our only solution and that health has to take a back-seat for the time-being.

Combine a poor diet that's high in fat, with family, along with other social obligations and you have a recipe for weight gain, diabetes, heart disease, etc. Much of this could all be avoided with a regular beginner cardio routine, performed 3 days per week. The common excuse for lack of exercise seems to be lack of time. However, almost everyone can spare 30 minutes out of their day for a quick hearty-healthy workout.

Think about how easy it would be to throw some chicken, pork, or salmon on broil while you follow an instructional video, with a beginner cardio routine geared toward getting you into shape. Most people spend anywhere from 20-40 minutes on average to drive to convenient fast-food establishments, wait in line, etc. While this isn't always the case, many of us waste a lot of time doing things we think save us time -- without even realizing it.

Perhaps your kids take up too much of your time and they need your attention. There is nothing most kids love more than exercising. Rather than playing a board game, or watching Dora the Explorer -- get your kids to follow along with you and do some beginner cardio exercises such as: light yoga, step aerobics, dancing to your favorite songs, take them along to a family aerobics class at your local fitness center, etc.
