How to get into the habit of exercising
How to get into the habit of exercising on a daily basis.
First of all, how many people have tried to burn a few calories by FORCING yourself to exercise? That's no fun.. right?
Well, hopefully many of you. Because my guide will show you steps and pictures in order to possibly WANT to exercise.
======================================
1.)
Think about ways you will get plenty of exercise during the day, or at night and then write down your ideas!
Example: "I am going shopping at the mall tomorrow with my son, maybe I should park in the back of the lot. First of all, there's always space in the back, so I wouldn't have to worry about finding a spot. And secondly, it's healthy!"
Example: "I'll ask "friend X" if he wants to ride down to QFC with me on our bikes tomorrow to chill out. That's 2 miles right there, plus it's fun to hang out with a friend.

2.)
Get plenty of sleep.
The average adult should 7-8 hours of sleep a night, while kids and teenagers should be closer to 9-10. The more sleep you get, the more refreshed and awake you are the next day to do stuff!

3.)
Instead of sitting around for hours playing COD4, use that time to help your parents/siblings do chores or mow the lawn! You may also just earn some cash as well.

4.)
Walk to school. Sounds simple enough.. why? Because it is. Ask your friend that lives nearby to walk with you to and from school. You have to wake up 20 minutes earlier.. big deal. You'll also establish a better friendship with that person walking 180 days a year, 40 minutes a day.

5.)
Take your dog on a walk, if your parents ask you or not! Yeah, I know. 15 whole minutes with just a furry animal. It's not that fun.. unless you take your handy dandy ipod. Time flies by when you're listening to good music.
Also, do stuff that are interesting.. like trying to race your dog down the block.

=======================================
I hope you enjoyed my guide. It was my very first one, so don't be too mean about it 
Good luck on your exercising!

Not just coincidence they all look miserable, that's because chores are a miserable thing.

Dont make UE's look bad please....
This topic is a good one unless your a complete nerd.
This helps with people's mindset who really want to workout. You will be surprised how much stuff like this could do too you...
Thanks for posting the guide it could have had more, but I think everyone got the idea.

Re: How to get into the habit of exercising
This is basic stuff, but it is helpful for some people. Make a guide on how to stay motivated.

I rate a guide, and all of you flame me....I'm voting on what I think this guide gets, anyone can exercise, and if your referring to me as a nerd. Sorry, guess again.

Re: How to get into the habit of exercising
Nice guide, I use mind power however, I keep visualizing me doing my workout/exercise, and keep telling myself that I will do it, and it works. Walking is a good calorie burner.

Re: How to get into the habit of exercising
Well, I myself jog with a friend. It's not boring at all, because it helps your friendship a lot, and it's GREAT exercise for your stamina and your leg muscles.

Re: How to get into the habit of exercising
Thanks for all the replys and tips. I look forward to writing more guides!
I don't mind if you say it sucks horribly. Just explain why.
