Want some great ideas for staying active — and a little exercise inspiration? Check out the quotes from girls below.
"I love running! I just plug in my iPod to my ears and can just run for hours and get all my stress and energy out."
–Alexis, MO
"I love to dance. To make it fun, I choose a song that I can relate to or that just makes me feel very happy and upbeat, and then I let the song guide my steps. It's awesome!"
–Laura, NY
"I play basketball with friends at school. Also, when I am stressed I always go out to our sheltered pavilion no matter what the weather and skateboard. It can really calm you down and give you energy."
–Tiana, AL
"I usually hang out with my friends. I know it sounds like it is not exercise but actually it is. We walk around the mall and our streets, or ride our bikes. I walk somewhere every day."
–Kailynn, CA
"The exercises that I do are dancing to my favorite music, playing games on my Wii, swimming in the summer, riding my bike, walking in P.E. — it's basically the basics. To make it fun I add music, friends, and confidence."
