How to Integrate Exercise Into Your College Schedule

Welcome back, Clemson Tigers! As the new semester kicks off, finding ways to integrate exercise into your busy college schedule is crucial for maintaining both physical and mental well-being. In a study done by the National Library of Medicine, physical activity levels often drop during the transition from high school to college. In fact, a study of 233 undergraduate students revealed that 65% were engaged in regular vigorous physical activity and 26% in regular moderate physical activity during high school, but these levels typically decrease as students adjust to college life.

At Clemson Fitness Company, located in Clemson, SC, we understand the unique demands of student life and are here to help you make fitness a seamless part of your routine. Here’s how you can effectively integrate exercise into your busy college schedule:

Schedule Workouts Like Classes

Treat your exercise sessions as important as your academic classes. Block out specific times each week for workouts and stick to them. Whether you prefer morning sessions, lunch breaks, or evening workouts, having a set schedule will help you stay committed and make exercise a regular part of your routine.

Take Advantage of Student Discounts

As a student, you can benefit from exclusive discounts at Clemson Fitness Company.

Combine Fitness with Study Breaks

Use exercise as a productive break from studying. A quick workout or a brisk walk can help clear your mind and boost your energy levels, making it easier to refocus on your studies. Incorporating short bursts of activity throughout your day can improve both your physical health and academic performance.
