Watching sports will never be the same


For all of you ladies who do not enjoy watching sports games but enjoy working out, I have a great routine for you to do.  If your boyfriend or husband enjoys watching sports of all assortments and you get bored, start putting yourself to work.  

I myself love sports but found I cannot sit an entire game sometimes, I get a little restless.  I have found a great way to pass the time.  Depending on the sport you are watching you will need to mix it up.  

For example if you are watching basketball:
*Every time someone makes a lay-up do 10 push-ups
*Every time someone dunks- 10 squats
*A free throw- 10 crunches
*You could also do turnovers, jump balls, charges, blocks, etc.  

For every aspect of the game you are watching pick a new workout routine to do.  If you are watching football or baseball use different items such as tackling, touchdowns, field goals, strike-outs, walks, home runs, singles, pop flies.  

This workout can be as strenuous and calorie burning as you want it to be.  If your in great shape do 20 of each exercise if your just starting to workout out make it 5.  There are not set rules or guidelines you need to follow after all this is your workout.  If you have a treadmill or elliptical in your living room hop on that for a quick minute as an exercise or run up and down your stairs a set amount of time.  Be as creative as you want or just do basic exercises.  This workout can burn up anywhere from 200-700 calories for your average 35 year old female.  If you follow the workout listed above the average 35 year old female can burn anywhere from 200-500 calories.

I hope this will help you pass the time while watching the big game and spending time with the one you love while doing it.
