DealDash Health: Get Healthy With Housework

Why not combine two chores into one? Here’s how you can get healthy while doing housework. Here are some ideas from DealDash.

While housework might not be people’s favorite thing to do it is actually a great way to start getting healthy. The following are some easy ways to sneak in some exercise while doing your daily household chores, from DealDash.

Bending is Exercise

Try to sneak in bending exercises wherever possible. For example, if you are picking up the laundry or a back of groceries work in a lunge or a squat. You will see some great results after doing this for a while consistently. If you have small children or pets you are probably picking things up off of the floor all day long. Incorporate in some lunges each time and you’ll be on your way to having muscled legs in no time.

Vacuuming Works Up a Sweat

Vacuuming can be another opportunity to add in some exercise moves to get yourself healthy. You can add lunges and make extended reaching movements while you are vacuuming. You can also doing chores that require a lot of muscles like scrubbing the walls and floors regularly. All are excellent ways to get fit while enjoying the benefit of a clean house.

Skip the Tools That Make Chores Easier

If you have the time you will want to go for more calorie burning house cleaning options like hand washing your clothes. You can also try raking leaves instead of using a leaf blower or using a push mower instead of a riding lawn mower. By making choices like these you will be doing a lot to help yourself get fit and healthy.

Music Helps You Clean and Dance

One thing that you can do in order to get yourself motivated to clean is creating a list of music that really gets you moving. This way you can enjoy listening to music that you enjoy while getting your home clean. You might not even think that the housework is as troublesome as it once was if you are enjoying music while you are doing it. If you throw in some dance steps while sweeping or dusting, all the better!
