In a perfect world, we'd all have at least an hour a day to devote to our fitness. But in the real world, 24 hours a day doesn't seem like nearly enough time to fit in work, school, and family. Stop stressing! Here are 10 ways to sneak a workout into your super busy schedule. Turn Your Commute into a Workout On days that Monica Vazquez, 27, a master trainer for New York Sports Clubs in New York City, can't do her usual run, she stuffs her essentials -- keys, cash, credit card, phone, and ID -- into a fanny pack and jogs home from work instead. "Running is a great workout, but it's also great transportation," she says. "Sometimes I get home even earlier than I normally do taking the subway." Not a runner? Bike to work, get off your bus or train a few stops earlier, or park the car farther away to extend your walking time. Set Your Alarm Early Becoming an A.M. exerciser means you get to cross your workout off your to-do list ASAP. We're not telling you to skip out on sleep in favor of a sweat session, but there are simple steps you can take to reset your sleep schedule and wake up earlier. Can't quite get yourself out of bed that early? Wear your workout clothes to bed and get your sweat on as soon as you wake up. Read more ways to sneak in a workout from Fitness Magazine.
