What Can You Learn From a Cat About Exercise
April 4th, 2008 · Filed Under: Abs Exercise
I know it sounds crazy.
What CAN you learn from a cat about exercise?
I used to have this cat named Allie - I actually shared her with an ex girlfriend Shana.
Allie was one rambunctious cat, I’ll tell you that right now.
But very fun to play with and full of energy and zest.
Allie made up her own playground - the fold out thing that you hang clothes on to dry.
For the life of me I don’t know what that’s called, but anyway…
We captured her on film one day, having fun on her playground - actually a little too much fun - and something happened at the end that makes me crack up every time I see it.
When it comes to exercise, I think Allie has taught us to try something new, challenge yourself, and have fun….but don’t do what she did at the end. : )
Go find YOUR playground. And if you have kids, take them too.
Enjoy!
Scott
P.S. Allie is in a new home with a puppy friend, and getting quite fat, so I hear. Maybe her playground days are over. : )

I love your cat video. I always think that cats can teach us so much about life. Their stretching, playing, and the way they are ready for instant action is great instruction for us. As you say, they always have fun too!
thank you for all your other great fitness and health blogs this week too.
yours in health and fitness

Hi Scott;
Thanks for sharing your cat video. It put a smile on my face..Animals are amazing creatures..their flexibility and fun nature can help us to learn to relax a bit and just enjoy the moment..exercise can be fun if we allow it to be..Helen
