Best Way to Lose Weight: Backyard Volleyball
01/14/2010 | 12:00 AM
Exercise doesn't have to be serious, and meeting your weekly quota of aerobic activity definitely shouldn't be stressful. On nice-weather weekends, rather than hitting the gym alone, rally friends and family for a game of volleyball. Volleyball is an ideal backyard sport not just because it's fun and relatively easy to organize, but also because it works muscle groups in your arms, legs and abdomen while keeping your heart-rate up to a healthy aerobic level. Let yourself be competitive - play to win, and your body will greatly benefit.
