Getting Exercise

posted in a little bit of everything |

I am not the best when it comes to exercising, I always have good intentions, but tend to put off what I know I need to be doing. I have a treadmill and a mini trampoline that don’t get too much use. I have a great pair of walking sneakers that get worn, but not too much for exercise purposes. Pretty much the only walking I’ve been doing lately has been when I’m out running errands or cleaning house. Yes, I’m burning a few calories, but not really working out my muscles the way I need to.

I found a solution, and a good one too, a solution I can actually stick to! I’m going to get myself a pair of Fitflops. These are shoes that are designed to tone and strengthen your leg muscles simply by walking while wearing them. I love it! And, they’re cute too! Take a look.

I plan to order my Fit Flops in the chocolate (sold exclusively by sweatyBetty.com) and black. I’m really liking the red too. I just think they’re all really cute! Of course, I do love shoes, especially sandals and flip flops, so it’s only natural that I would like the Fit Flop and want to add it to my shoe collection.While sweatyBetty.com is in the U.K., they will ship worldwide. I can’t wait to order mine!

    I have the black ones, they’re OK. Just OK. Haven’t noticed any big toning miracle since I’ve been wearing them, a couple times a week all day. But they are comfy and cute shoes.

    Elle – I like the fact that they’re cute and comfy! Those are the major selling points to me. If they happen to do a little toning while they’re on my feet, even better! I know I have to get me a pair. :-D

    Isn’t it difficult to stay motivated to get exercise??? Most of my adult life I’ve been pretty diligent and disciplined to get exercise but as I get older it is so hard to keep the motivation especially when there are so many distractions – like work, blogging and entrecards!!! lol lol :)
