Fitness for fun! What being active means and finding what activity you enjoy?

Fitness for fun! What being active means and finding what activity you enjoy?

Recently with a large number of my clients and friends are wanting to be more fit for summer time. With March already giving us summer time weather this is only natural. Especially in the midwest where a majority of the population is either coming out of hibernation or being active because of the nice weather. Regardless of where you are at the excitement happens when you find the fun in what you are doing.  Fitness is a glorified word for being active. Being active is doing something other than being motionless or not moving.  Still this fascinated me that people were asking what was the right way to be active. So i began conducting a research study to better understand what being active means.

The primary method to better understand what activities you enjoy are the ones you remember doing as a kid? Some of the answers were, running around the play ground, swinging, running, exploring, bike riding, going for a walk, the jungle gym, four square, backyard sports, and a wide range of others. Culturally this demographic was very diverse and yielded some unique experiences. As a result each agreed that during their younger years they enjoyed so many different activities and in some cases still do today.

Fitness is as fun as you make it. If you enjoy running, triathlons, iron mans competitions, walking, biking, swinging, contact sports, baseball, basketball, softball, kick ball, weight training, power lifting, rugby, track and field, cricket, roller derby mountain biking, hiking, gardening, working out, running around wildly, swimming, rock climbing and a wide range of others we could list.   approach being active with excitement and the ability to enjoy.  The time is now to make fitness fun!

What are you favorite activities?
