How much you burn varies enormously based on how much you move. NEAT (plus purposeful exercise) accounts for 15% to 30% of the energy you burn.</li> </ul> <p>When you hear tips from health experts like “park far away from the entrances to stores” or “climb the stairs instead of taking the elevator at work,” they’re encouraging you to increase your NEAT expenditure. These changes can seem insignificant, but they have a profound impact on your mobility and quality of life over time.</p> <p>Think about it this way: If you take the stairs at work every day from now until retirement (compared to if you don’t), what differences might you notice in your cardiovascular fitness, the strength of your legs or the structural health of your knees?</p> <p><strong>When we limit our understanding of “fitness” to traditional exercise, we miss out on countless opportunities to improve our health while simply going about our daily lives.</strong><br/> <div id="polls-7" class="wp-polls"> <form id="polls_form_7" class="wp-polls-form" action="/web/20220819151029/https://www.forbes.com/index.php" method="post"> <p style="display: none;"><input type="hidden" id="poll_7_nonce" name="wp-polls-nonce" value="08edeef567"/></p> <p style="display: none;"><input type="hidden" name="poll_id" value="7"/></p> <p style="display: none;"><input type="hidden" id="poll_multiple_ans_7" name="poll_multiple_ans_7" value="3"/></p> <div class="polls-heading">What aspect of your health are you planning on prioritizing in 2022?</div> <div id="polls-body" class="wp-polls-ans"> <div class="poll-options"> <input type="checkbox" id="poll-answer-21" name="poll_7" class="poll-answer" value="21"/> <label for="poll-answer-21" class="poll-label">My physical health</label> </div> <div class="poll-options"> <input type="checkbox" id="poll-answer-22" name="poll_7" class="poll-answer" value="22"/> <label for="poll-answer-22" class="poll-label">My mental health</label> </div> <div class="poll-options"> <input type="checkbox" id="poll-answer-23" name="poll_7" class="poll-answer" value="23"/> <label for="poll-answer-23" class="poll-label">My oral health</label> </div> <div class="poll-result-btn"> <input type="button" name="vote" value=" Vote " class="poll-button" onclick="poll_vote(7);"/><a href="#ViewPollResults" class="view-result" onclick="poll_result(7); return false;" title="View Results Of This Poll">View Results</a> </div> </div> </form> </div> </p> </div> </section> <section id="gym_alternatives_section" class="article-section"> <h2 class="section_heading">Gym Alternatives</h2> <div class="section-content wysiwyg-content blue-bullets"> <p>So, what are some ways to exercise other than the gym? The list is long. Below are a few ideas to get you started brainstorming.</p> <ul> <li>Dancing (all you need is headphones and a playlist)</li> <li>Virtual reality boxing (I have a client who does it with a headset in her living room and loves it!)</li> <li>Martial arts (Tai chi is gentle while others like tae kwon do are more intense.)</li> <li><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220819151029/https://www.forbes.com/health/body/best-yoga-poses-for-your-health/">Yoga</a> (virtual or in-person sessions)</li> <li>Wrestling with kids (or a partner)</li> <li>Photography (wander around town taking pictures)</li> <li>Biking (for recreation or transportation)</li> <li>Walking meetings (Personal or professional, they’re a great way to grow relationships.)</li> <li>Walking with an audiobook or podcast</li> <li>Gardening (in your own garden, for a neighbor in need or in a community garden)</li> <li>Kayaking (Many cities with rivers or lakes have rental companies, even in urban environments.)</li> <li>Jumping rope</li> <li>Indoor rock climbing</li> <li>Cleaning out the basement, garage or closets</li> <li>A couch to 5K plan (Find a local group or try an online training plan with a friend.)</li> <li>Swimming</li> <li>Hiking</li> <li>Join a league (Softball, baseball, soccer, kickball and ultimate frisbee teams are often available for adults.)</li> <li>A small, physical goal you’d like to do once a day, every day, as part of your routine (10 push-ups, plank for 30 seconds, a cartwheel, etc.)</li> </ul> <p>Exercise can happen anywhere. The benefits reach far beyond body weight, but so many of us have spent our entire lives measuring success by the numbers on a scale. By decoupling fitness and weight loss in your mind, you can free yourself to measure success any number of ways.<br/> <div id="cta-builder" class="cta-builder exclude-eds only-button"> <div class="cta-builder__wrap"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220819151029/https://futurefitness.pxf.io/c/1955282/1203983/13946" target="_blank" class="cta-builder__btn cta-builder-button" data-nofollow="true" data-title="" data-description="" data-cta-text="Get In Shape With Your Own Fitness And Wellness Coach" data-cta-variation="Only Button" data-automatic-numbering="2" style="background-color:#657E79" data-widget-type="CTA Builder"> Get In Shape With Your Own Fitness And Wellness Coach </a> </div> <div class="my-3"> </div> </div> </p> <p>As you consider your options for exercise this spring, ask yourself: What would be fun to try?
