What's your excuse for not exercising?

Most of us make lots of excuses about not exercising. We have too much to do, children take up all the time, it’s too hot/cold outside, we have chores and responsibilities, I’ll start next week etc., cannot find time and so on.
However doctors recommend that every person regardless of age, gender and work responsibilities should exercise at least 20-30 minutes per day, 5 days per week, to reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease, obesity, and many other fatal illnesses.
If you cannot find even 20 minutes then find at least 10 minutes twice or thrice a day. Exercise is very important especially since we spend too much time sitting in front of laptops, TV and computers.
Try to get up early by 15 minutes and exercise before doing anything else. During school or office break, take a 10 minute walk.
In the evening, do some more exercise while in front of TV and before you know it, you will be doing 30 minutes of exercise and probably saving your own life.
How conscientious are you about exercising?

I rarely do some exercise and I know my body really need it. But sometimes I am just too lazy to exercise. huhuhu. Shame on me. Maybe I'll try to wake up a little early next time to be able to have morning walk as an exercise. :)

I walk every morning for a few minutes just to shake things up. The rest are rigid house chores.

There's no excuse for not exercising. Once you're get used to it, your body will automatically "look" for it and you will do it routinely.
