As college students, we have a pretty tight schedule. With all the homework, tests and trying to contain somewhat of a social life, you might start thinking that you absolutely have no time to get in any exercise. Well, you would be mistaken.

You don’t need to go to the gym or have this planned out routine to get a little exercise in during the day. One of the main things that you always have time for is walking. You want to get your heart rate up? Walk to campus instead of driving. You’ll get your heart rate up, enjoy the fresh air, and save money on gas! Another easy way to incorporate physical activity in your daily schedule is to use the stairs instead of the elevator. The possibilities are truly endless

On days where I feel like all I’ve done for the day is sitting at a desk working, when it’s time for lunch I walk to where I want to get food instead of driving. Instead of your 30-minute study break being spent on your phone, go for a walk around the block. It really is easy to incorporate. You just have to make time in your schedule to give your body some love. I always try to do some form of activity for at least 30-minutes a day. Even on my most busy schedules. It is important to give your body the attention in needs. Go for a walk or do some stretches to get the blood flowing and your heart rate pumping. It important to treat you body with love, because when you give love to your body it will love you right back.
