Let’s Make a Bucket List!


So I came across this idea of making a bucket list, but not the kind Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson made in the movie.  I’m talking about a fitness bucket list! Wouldn’t it be fun to search for cool work-out ideas or even come up with some routines of your own?  And they could be as simple or as adventurous as you want them to be.  For example you could learn to box or do karate, take a salsa class, go rock climbing, or run in a 5K every year and set finishing time goals.  For those of you that want to be adventurous, try competing in the Empire State Building Run Up!  There’s no rule that says you have to go to a gym to get in a good workout, there are so many things you can do to make your workouts fun and exciting! One of the best parts is that each workout is different and new so you won’t find yourself getting bored and eventually giving up!  You can stay in shape and enjoy life while you’re doing it!
