Today's Featured Article - Exercise in 3 Minutes? It's (Microwave Exercise)"

One of the things that we identified in the group was what types of exercise you can do in as little as 2 or 3 minutes, or the amount of time you might be waiting for the microwave.

Here are some quick exercise ideas:

•Push-ups (on the wall or counter works just fine!)
•Calf raises (from a standing position, raise up on your tiptoes - try it without holding on to the counter and it's even harder! To make it more intense, squeeze your glutes while you raise your heels off the ground!)
•Take cans in and out of the top shelf of the cupboard. (the heavier the better!)
•Walk the stairs in your house until the microwave beeps
•Jump rope (without the jump-rope!)
•Write the ABC's with your foot. (Note, you cannot write the ABC's with your foot on the ground - try balancing on one foot while doing the ABC's with the other. Or you can do them seated.)

Those should get you started! Every 3 minutes will add up. Just find 10 times a day that you can do these and you are doing 30 minutes of exercise! You'll be surprised about how sore you can get in 3 minutes!
