Have you ever felt tired and stressed out from work and by the time you get
home you see your three children running towards you asking you to play
basketball with them? You refused and promised them that you will after you
take you rest.

Instead of disappointing your children, why not say, "yes" after all? You
will be surprised by the amount of energy you will have after that 30-minute
activity.

Did you know that by exercising at a moderate pace for only 30 minutes, you
would feel a lot better, mentally? It has been proven that this improves the
appetite and sharpens your style in problem solving. Not only that. You will
also feel that it is easier to sleep at night if you do moderate exercises
even for only 30 minutes every day.

What are the benefits of regular exercise? It promotes self-discipline and has
a positive impact how you perceive life. Exercise helps in lifting your spirits
and getting you out of any depression. For first timers, it can be done for 15
minutes for 2 to 3 days a week. You can increase the time you spend once your
body gets tuned up for it.

DON'T ever force your body! If you get hurt, then stop. You can take a break
from exercising for a few days and then you can start again but you need to start
from day 1.

Here are some moderate exercises you can do and enjoy:

1. Walk. Make use of your surroundings. You can walk your dog or with your
partner or child. Encourage your family to do the walking exercise daily and you
will find yourself burning calories while enjoying the surroundings and getting
enough sunlight that is also good for your body.

2. Discover the wonders of Yoga. Yoga is one effective exercise that energizes not
only your body but also your soul. You may want to learn even the basic yoga
positions that are not too complicated but proven effective. A five-minute yoga
exercise can perk you up and recharge your body with the energy you lost for the
whole day. You relax and at the same time you stretch!

3. Engage yourself into sports. Play basketball, football, baseball, tennis or
badminton. Many doctors have recommended sports as an effective way to stay fit and
healthy. Sports can also be done in moderation. Do not take it seriously. Shooting
basketball with a friend is one moderate exercise that is also considered a sport.

4. Join exercise programs at work. If you do not have exercises programs at work,
then why not start one? You can talk to your boss about it and start with your colleagues.
You do not only lose calories but it is also one good way to bond with them. This can be
done 30 minutes, 3 times a week.

5. Exercise while doing household chores. Gardening, raking leaves, lawn mowing, doing
the laundry, vacuuming and car washing are effective moderate exercises at home. Make use
of these chores to sweat and burn calories. Instead of using machines and gadgets to
perform these chores, why not do it with your hands and lose some fat?

Making exercise a part of your daily routine will surprise you about how much calories you
will burn. Participating in moderate exercise 20 to 30 minutes every day can burn 150
calories up to 1,000 calories a day!
