Short Answer: The exercise you will actually do.<\/h2>\n

Just like a diet \u2013 the best exercise is the one you will stick to. Especially if you did not grow up playing sports or being active, you NEED to find a form of exercise or movement that you enjoy and will maintain long term!<\/p>\n

This is one of the three main reasons high school\/college athletes often struggle with weight gain after they graduate.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Never learned \u2018how\u2019 to exercise for lifelong health instead of solely for sports performance.<\/li>\n
  2. Continue to eat as if they are practicing five days a week.<\/li>\n
  3. Used to a \u201cteam\u201d atmosphere and find solo exercise less fun.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If you can relate to any of the reasons above, we can help. If you miss your \u201cteam\u201d or accountability buddies, find new ones! Try a different gym or workout class.<\/p>\n

    After I quit college softball, I found CrossFit and I gained a whole new family that encouraged me to be strong and healthy. But it doesn\u2019t have to be CrossFit, it can be a Zumba, Jazzercise, water aerobics, weight lifting, walking club, or a neighbor you see walking their dog around the same time as you each day.<\/p>\n

    If you don\u2019t have an athletic background, it is never too late to start! Try a class or a new hobby like horseback riding, hiking, snowshoeing, swimming, rock climbing, or yoga.<\/p>\n

    The possibilities are endless! You just need to take the first step!<\/h2>\n

    If you would like some help or community resources to improve your fitness, contact your Nutrition & Fitness Advisor<\/a> and we would be happy to help you find your new hobby!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
