Podcast Episode 295: 3 Ways to Sneak in Exercise: Finding Time When You’re Always Too Busy

Ever feel like finding time to exercise is like hunting for Bigfoot?

We’re all chasing it, but it somehow remains as elusive as that mystical creature. If you’re always too busy to work out, don’t worry—you’re not alone. We’ve all been there, scrolling through Instagram, seeing those fitness influencers who seem to have all the time in the world to work out, and thinking, “How?!”

But guess what? You don’t need a five-hour gym session or a personal trainer named Sven to get moving.

Here’s the deal: Staying active keeps your body strong and your mental health in check. Exercise is like hitting the refresh button on your brain—it boosts your mood, helps you focus, and gives you the energy to tackle whatever life throws at you (like that mountain of laundry that never seems to shrink).

But here’s the key to making it work: start small and with activities you actually enjoy. If you hate running, guess what? You don’t have to do it! Love dancing in your living room like nobody’s watching? That totally counts as exercise. The trick is to keep it fun and sustainable so that it feels less like a chore and more like a treat.

And here’s the golden rule: make exercise fit into your life, not the other way around. We’re talking about sneaky little ways to get moving—like doing squats while you brush your teeth or taking a walk during your lunch break. The best workouts are the ones that don’t feel like workouts at all.

So, if you’re always too busy to hit the gym, tune in to this podcast episode and get ready to rethink how you look at exercise.

Who knows? You might just find that sneaking in a workout is easier than sneaking in that last piece of chocolate cake (and way better for you).

In this episode of the No Guilt Mom podcast you’ll learn:

  • It’s all about training for the life you want, not just chasing a certain body image. 
  • Not only does staying active keep the body strong, but it also enhances mental health. 
  • Starting small and with activities you enjoy is key; keeping it enjoyable is crucial to make it sustainable.
  • Make exercise fit into your life naturally, don’t make your life revolve around exercise.
