One of the things busy women need to do (and often struggle to do) is to exercise regularly. Not necessarily to go to the gym or an exercise class every day, but simply to get up and move for at least 30 minutes a day, five or six days a week* -- walking, jogging, dancing, hiking, lifting weights or doing easy exercises at home. Just that one habit can make a world of difference in a busy woman's mental and physical health, and it's well worth the effort it takes to make time for it, even in the midst of a busy personal or family schedule.
Sometimes, though, you don't have 30 minutes, but you do have 10 -- or maybe just five. Or you've walked or worked out for 30 minutes in the morning, but want to give your body a little extra boost in the afternoon or evening. For those situations, here are four easy exercises you can do almost anywhere, using a few minutes here and there that even the busiest woman can find in her schedule:
