Working Out:Staying in Shape While Having Fun


     Did you know that you should workout at least three times a week? According to a study by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, only 13 percent of people in our area engaged with sports or activity on a daily basis.

   Working out is something that I used to dread, and avoid all together. However, this summer me and working out just seemed to click. Working out, and eating right is something that is important to me, and I plan on learning how to teach an aerobics class.

     My favorite classes are Zumba, cycling, and boxing. I think the key to wanting/ liking to work out is the activity you do. Making working out fun is what will keep you going. I asked someone who was working out at the gym about his fitness routine, and what he does to make his workout enjoyable.


      The University of Maryland offers so many great classes, and has amazing equipment in our gym(s). We even have personal training opportunities at our gym(s)!

  1. I really enjoyed this post about exercise, it was very easy to follow and relatable. I had no idea so few people worked out! You did a really good job of incorporating links into the post. I think the link to the classes was the best, because it encourages those reading your post to get involved. Great job overall!
