Nine ways to exercise daily...when you don't have the time

We all know exercise can help to improve our health and lose weight. According to the U.S. Surgeon General, 25 percent of adults don't exercise at all. Hectic schedule is one of the main cause. To relieve from your daily stress and risk, you need to spend just few minutes a day to getting health benefits.

Tips for fitness & strength:

Wake up a slight earlier. Start by set your alarm clock just 5 minutes before. Do stretches and jumping jacks before getting in the bathe, or follow a short exercise DVD.

Find a workout companion. Exercising with a friend is more fun than working out alone and a good motivator. Ask a colleague to go for a walk during lunch or see if a neighbor wants to fire hoops.

• Change into exercise clothes before leaving work. You'll be prepared for a short walk, in a little while you get home.

• Schedule your fitness actions. If you put exercise on your calendar like other activities, you're more likely to do it.

• Recognize your successes. Keep a register of all the times you make a healthy choice to move more, such as by taking the flight of steps instead of an elevator. After the first week, prize yourself with a new pair of sneakers or a cool new water bottle.

• Create a home (or desk) gym. If you always have equipment at the ready, it will be easy to take five minutes to use it. A jump rope, a stability ball, exercise bands and dumbbells don't cost much or take up much room.

• Move while you watch TV. Don't sit indolently - or worse, get a snack - during commercials. Do sit-ups or jog in place instead.

• Play games with your kids. Men, don't just look at while your kids play outside - join in their fun. If your kids love video games, think about transaction their comfort for the Nintendo. The whole family will break an agitation using special controllers to compete at boxing, tennis, golf and bowling.

• Exercise while you work. Increase your activity level and efficiency with neck rolls or arm raises (push hands out to the side and then up toward the ceiling). Or do a few customized push-ups on the edge of your desk.
