Fit Tip: Have a Backup Plan
Even if you have the best intentions of waking up at 6 a.m. and going for a run, sometimes it just doesn’t happen. You end up cheating on running to snuggle with your spouse, your kitty cat or your kids (maybe even all of the above).
These days when you choose to snuggle or just to sleep a bit more have a backup plan to fit fitness back into your routine. When you accidentally or purposely miss your workout, figure out a way to make it happen: walk for your lunch hour, run after work instead of going to happy hour, work out with your favorite fitness DVD after you put the kids to bed. Having a contingency plan means you can have your cake and eat it too have your snuggle time and still exercise. Do you have a plan?
