Exercise ideas

[a.smith]

I want to get some exercise which is more fun than the gym or going jogging. Any ideas?

New to the forum ,so hopefully I have posted in the right section :)

Have a look at the 'What's on in East Dulwich' section. There are loads of exercise classes and groups.

I am a zumba teacher at push studios. Zumba is a mixture of dances from all over world and different eras mixed with aerobic exercises and is great fun and anyone is welcome. I teach at push studios (behind william rose butcher) on a Monday at 7pm. Would you be interested you think?

Duke McKenzie's brother put out a book called Boxing Fitness. It has some solid exercises which may not be fun early on but they'll fitten you up.

I'm a million miles away from being a jogging fan, but having joined 'Free fitness in the park' Peckham Rye (check what's on listings)I can't imagine not going! It's more than just jogging, it's a friendly bunch of mixed ability fitness levels, we stop at 100m lengths to do muscle tone work, but more importantly We have FUN!

I am selling my Lateral Thigh Trainer and power cords and instruction book and DVD for ?20.

It's fun, but I can't be arsed. I should post this post in the For Sale section. But, since you're asking....

I am also selling on a mini trampet one diameter wide for ?12 if you want it. Too big for my little living room!

Here are some suggestions:

American football

athletics

badminton

basketball

cricket

cycling

dancing

dry slope skiing

football including 5-a-side

golf

gymnastics

hockey

indoor rock climbing

martial arts

netball

rowing

rugby

skating

skate boarding

squash

table tennis

tennis

ten pin bowling

volleyball

walking

wrestling

Whatever form of exercise you choose it is essential that it is something you really enjoy doing otherwise you are unlikely to keep it up. Team sports are a good way to socialise as well as get fit. If you are highly self-motivated solo activities may give you greater flexibility over where and when you exercise. You can ensure you are always motivated by setting achievable weekly and monthly goals.

The best exercise is that which you can incorporate into your daily activities. Exercise need never be dull if you are creative.

All the best
