Get Motivated - Get Fit

If you have looked through my posts, you see that I recommend finding an activity and doing it.  My personal preference is walking, but whatever you do, find something to motivate you and do it.  The President's Challenge may fit that bill for you.  This is not a political movement and politics should not keep you from using this challenge if it will get you motivated.  So go to the website by clicking on the president's challenge above, check it out, register and GET MOVING!

From the President's Challenge website:

The President’s Challenge isn’t just for schoolkids anymore. It’s for anyone who wants to track their physical activities and improve their fitness. Maybe you want to lose a few pounds or gain muscle mass? We can help you do that. (And our BMI calculator will help put your weight in perspective.)
The bottom line is this: couch potato or triathlete—the President’s Challenge is an equal-opportunity exercise program.
