Multitasking Move: Balancing and Brushing Teeth
We all know that improving your balance can improve your life. As can good dental hygiene, so how about combining the two? You all know I love to multitask so recently when I am brushing my teeth, I balance on one leg for a minute and then on the other leg for another minute.
Fit Tip: Move While You Wait
Yesterday I went through my day and payed attention to all the times I am waiting. I waited in line at the grocery store, 5 minutes. I waited for the super-duper slow elevator here at Sugar HQ, 5 minutes.
Get in Gear: Massage Gym Ball
I always see the most interesting gym accessories and one of the most interesting finds that I've recently come across is a Massage Gym Ball ($8.99).
Basically it is just like any other stability/exercise ball, except that it’s covered in little nubs -- My guess is that some people use it to get a mini-massage while doing their exercises on the ball. While I am all for multitasking, I have yet to find the need for this in my own home gym, but I find them interesting to use at the gym.

I love strength training moves that work different areas of the body at once, and if you feel the same, this multitasking move has your name on it. It'll strengthen your quads, tone your outer thighs and bum, and work your upper body and back. Not only that, but this dynamic move will also get your heart rate up.
Lifting Tip: Multitask
When you are pressed for time at the gym, to ensure that you work all your muscles you pick moves that work more than one body part. I call them multi-tasking moves, and you might just hear them called multi-joint exercises. No matter what they are called, they are certainly efficient.

No exercise beats squats for toning up your lower half. It is easy to create many variations and turn this versatile move into a multitasking one. Changing the leg position of your squat is a great way to mix up your routine.
Multitasking Move: Arms and Abs
I love multitasking, about this I cannot lie. I really love a multitasking exercise. Arms and abs are often what brides want to work in their pre-wedding Pilates sessions.Multitasking Move: Booty Lift Chest Press
Multitasking moves are a fave of mine. They are not only extra challenging, but they're time savers as well. I like this one because not only do you get to lie down (another reason I like ab work), but it strengthens the shoulders, triceps, abs, and booty.
