Make sure you choose activities that will fit into your schedule. For example, while jogging or walking briskly you should be able to hold a conversation. If you do not feel normal again within 10 minutes following exercise, you are exercising too hard. Also, if you have difficulty breathing or feel faint or weak during or after exercise, you are exercising too hard. Wear shoes that fit and clothes that move with you, and always exercise in a safe location.
Many people walk in indoor shopping malls for exercise.
Malls are climate controlled and offer protection from bad weather. Encourage your family or friends to support you and join you in your activity. If you have children, it is best to build healthy habits when they are young. When parents are active, children are more likely to be active and stay active for the rest of their lives. Whether your goal is to control your weight or just to feel healthier, becoming physically active is a step in the right direction.
