There are any number of ways to get cardio exercise in. Here are a few:
1. Take a ten minute walk after breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
2. If you watch something with commercials, do jacks (or the exercise of your choice that gets your heart rate up) until the show comes back.
3. Variation on 2: If you don’t watch TV with commercials, every time the main character says That Thing They Say, do jacks. Kind of like a drinking game, but better for you!
4. Dance. This can range from going out with friends to taking a Zumba class to cranking the tunes in the kitchen and boogie-ing down while sauteeing the spinach.
5. Borrow a kid. Play tag, any variation. Climb on the play structure at the park. Try to get your phone back from the little booger. Take them swimming or hiking or biking.
6. Challenge a friend to a game. No, not chess, unless you play full-contact chess. I’m thinking basketball or soccer or pickleball or ultimate frisbee.
7. Hubba hubba. But no just lying there thinking of England.
