It all starts September 1st. So you have a little over a week (as today is August 17) to continue to be a schlub--then we go to work. I'm talking about the 30 For 30 Fitness Challenge being brought to us by the Odessa College Sports Center and Wrangler Sports. How does it work? You exercise in some form (walking, running, squats, push-ups, lifting--whatever works best for you) for 30 minutes a day for all 30 days of September. That simple. Not only does it do wonders for your body by building muscles and endurance and potentially helping you lose weight and get fit--but you can also win some really nice prizes in the process.

IT'S JUST 30 MINUTES

It goes by faster than you think-especially when you're in the midst of a good walk around the neighborhood (take the dog with you--they'll love the exercise too!) or just walking/running on the treadmill. Put the earbuds in and before you know it time is up.

RECRUIT A PARTNER

Exercise is always easier when you have someone who's doing it with you. A support system to help motivate you to stay on track. Like a diet-always better in pairs.

IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE STRENUOUS

No one expects you to be the next Arnold Schwarzenegger. Find the type of exercise that's best for you and then start in moderation and build from there. You just have to stick with it for 30 minutes each day.
