Bad Weather is No Excuse to Skip Exercise! Hit the Mat!

Hey everyone! Ok, so today it's raining cats and dogs outside and my first inclination is to think 'great I'll just lazy around all day and not go to the gym'. I think that is the way most of us would think since most of us are not crazy about exercise! But then I got to thinking about it and in reality I am now to the point in my exercise regimen where my body is actually craving it! I am not excited about missing the gym today, I am actually pretty disappointed! On days like today I get on the floor and do my best with a routine I discovered in Women's Health magazine. I have to admit, the first few days I was pretty sore, but as time goes by it gets easier. The great thing about this is that you do not need any equipment whatsoever, even a mat is optional! Here's the info directly from their website so you can follow along and remember, it might be hard to do at first. I still am not that perfect at it, but don't give up! Have a happy, healthy day!
