| 3 EASY THINGS YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR FITNESS (and fun!) |
1) "Plan for your workouts," says Martha Tillman, Director of the South 40 Fitness Center. "Look at the week - the homework assignments, exams, activities, etc., and figure out where it best fits in. Divide your exercise session into mini-workouts toward the 30-minute goal (ideally five times a week). Three times ten minutes, two times fifteen [minutes], etc."
2) Run or walk in the Thurtene Road Race March 30.
3) Take a measured walk around campus. |
