In the past when a woman’s responsibility was to maintain the household and take care of the children. However, today’s modern woman does everything a man does (and she can even do it in heels). Life has become more dynamic with people more and more busy, trying to juggle between their professional and personal lives.
Women now have the responsibility to tackle on daily tasks like cleaning, going to work, being a good mum and wife, cooking, and staying healthy and fit. The latter can be a bit difficult task, as there is often less time in the day or the required energy to spare an hour or two to go to the gym or pop in an exercise DVD. So exercise is often neglected and left on a backburner. However, every woman, even the busiest one, has to stay fit in order to feel good and stay healthy. Fortunately this is not impossible, despite a busy schedule. Here are great workout tips any modern woman can do no matter their busy schedules.

If you work too far from home, then get off the bus a few stops earlier and walk to work, or park the car somewhere more distant.
Riding a bike to work or to run a few errands is another great way to workout. You can go to work by bike every day or ride it to meet a few friends for lunch. Take advantage of the weekends too. Taking out the bike and scenic tour around town can be a great way to keep the legs strong.
One of the main reasons why we don’t have the time to work out is the long hours at the office. But combining work and fitness is possible. We suggest taking small breaks to do some simple exercises that will give you a daily dose of workout so you’ll feel more energized throughout the day. A great tip is to keep dumbbells in the office and use them to do some exercises during your lunch break. Have a 15-minute break? Use your chair for support and do 4 to 5 sets of lunges and squats. It’s easy and effective.
