Thanks for that Chickdee...i started on the Flabulous Forummers and then fell by the wayside.

I was thnking of starting a thread in which we could share ways we have "Moved more"..not just going to the gym, but doing everyday things that get our bodies moving.

Research has shown that we need at least 30 mins of exercise a day (crikey!! who gets that !!?) BUT the thirty minutes can be broken up into ten minute sessons of heart rate inducing exercise...it has to be at least thirty minutes.

Any ideas?

Here are mine

Walk briskly from your front door for 5 mins, then turn round and come back

Vigorous housework (combine with Twiddling!

Get on your childrens Wii game

stride up and down the stairs

jog round the block or down the lane

skipping

use your childs tramoline

use tinned tomatoes (or other tins) as weights and use tem while watching tv.

I will put his on another post too...any ideas welcome!!
