The danger of television is you become sedentary while you watch, and the problem is compounded when you eat unhealthy snacks, etc. There are many things you can be doing at the same time as staring at the television. There is even a program, called &quot;Sit and Be Fit&quot; that is designed to help people get fit while they are sitting still.

Get in the habit of tensing and relaxing your muscles throughout your day, and that will make them firmer over time. The important thing is to just do it, and you can design your program as you wish.

Try to avoid thinking about how far you need to go, and instead just focus on the process and doing it.
