Everyone has busy lives with work, school, children and other daily events, but finding time each day to relax and get in a good work out is the best way to stay in shape and live a healthy lifestyle.  Exercising is a great way to relieve stress and also helps keep your immune system in full speed during the flu season.  If possible, find at least three times a week to get in a quick workout with the 20 options I’ve given below.   There are many healthy alternatives available each and every day. 
A few examples of ways to keep active and stay healthy are:
- taking the stairs instead of the escalator or elevator
-parking in the back of the parking lot instead of looking for a spot in the front row
-bring one bag in at a time after grocery shopping
-going for a short walk on your lunch break instead of sitting down
-walking around the mall, even if you don’t plan on purchasing anything
-clean the house, such as mopping or vacuuming the floor, scrubbing the bathroom or doing laundry
All of these ideas and many more can help you maintain a healthy lifestyle, even while your busy at work or even running around at home.  Taking a few minutes out of your day to make sure you are staying active will benefit your health in the future.  With so many lives being taken every day by sicknesses and unhealthy lifestyles, we should all do our part to stay healthy and get in shape before summertime!
