P.S. Want to set yourself up for success in 2024? You're going to want to join our Real Life Keto Challenge that starts on January 1.
This summer, it's time to get creative with your exercise. Your kiddos are home from school, your schedule may be a bit more flexible, and the weather is incredible!
Maybe try a few at-home workouts you find for FREE on YouTube. Or, even hop in the neighborhood pool for a couple of laps, and then grab your kiddos and go for a bike ride. Whatever your choice of movement, make sure your number one goal is to have FUN!
Often, we take exercise way too seriously. We sign up for a HUGE undertaking with a personal trainer, commit our wallets and time to a gym that is not even en route to our workplaces, and believe in our hearts that anything less than an hour-long workout is pointless.
This is just NOT TRUE! As long as your body is moving, your heart and brain and soul will most definitely thank you!
So grab your headphones and enjoy this podcast from the KETO-SIStas while you clean those dreaded bathrooms and change ALL the sheets in the house. (Yes, cleaning is an excellent form of exercise and TOTALLY counts.) This story will encourage you for sure!
And if you choose to exercise outside, enjoy an added bonus of Vitamin D!
