So, we are already a few weeks into the new year. How are your New Year's resolutions holding up? If you are llike most people, you are already asking..."What resolutions?" That is because most people throw in the towel on their resolutions within the first few weeks of the year. Each year people jump into action (or say they are going to jump into action) and then end up giving up.

While you are on the phone, sitting around, do a few squats or a few leg lifts
Chase your kids around the house (I know, this is something you do without even trying LOL)
Walk up and down
