I'm such a wimp. Tried some body-ball core exercises today and they didn't seem to work- - didn't feel anything when I did them. Then tried doing the mile and a half run around my block and failed miserably and got cramps. Any ideas how to stay motivated?

What excercise do you do?

Do any of you excercise? What excercise do you do? I've got a problem because I can't stand gyms and so I don't know what to do to stay in shape...

the more you run the more you'll want to run. cramps are caused by 2 things: not breathing correctly and having food in your tummy that is digesting and having issues because of the constant up and down motion. Of course you can get cramps from your period too, but jogging will help those. When you run you want to breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth, focus on expanding your chest as you breathe in. This will prevent that side stitch, and eventually get rid of it if you are mid cramp. I'd suggest running at least two hours after you eat, and making the meal before you run something easily digested, so things incredibly high in fiber might be a bad idea. Good luck cutxpaste, keep it up.
