So you can't make it to the gym. Big deal. That's no excuse no to get some exercise on a gorgeous day.
Got kids?
Chase them around the grass in a game of freeze tag. Not only will you spend quality time with your kids but you'll get a great workout as well (can you say interval training?!).
Got a dog?
If your dog is like mine, they are nuts about chasing things. Harley likes to chase balls. Get a game of soccer going with your dog. Use forward, side and back kicks to work your legs.
Got a bike?
Take the family on a bike ride or head out yourself for some time to reflect. And sweat.
Got running shoes?
Hit the pavement. You don't need a treamill to run. Breathe in the fresh air.
Got a garden?
You'd be surprised at how many calories gardening burns.
Got a lawn?
Mow it. Try to stretch it for an hour.

These are all great ideas. I had to giggle a little though at the thought of mowing my 10ft by 10 ft square patch of lawn for an hour. My neighbors would think I had lost my noodle. LOL. It takes 10 and a half seconds to mow on a hard day.
