Exercise can sometimes feel like a chore. To prevent this feeling, the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases recommends the following: join a walking group or exercise class; ask a friend to exercise with you; build a small garden in your backyard, neighborhood, or community; perform three ten-minute exercise sessions during your day instead of a long workout; switch up your workout so you don’t get bored; and if you don’t feel safe or comfortable exercising outdoors, join a gym.
