No time - just an excuse?

Emeljanovas observed the man walking along a street in Palanga, lifting his shopping bags with one hand and then the other, effectively incorporating strength training into his daily routine. The professor highlighted this as an example of how people often use the excuse of "no time" for not engaging in physical activity. "This is a matter of attitude, when people say they don't have time to exercise. Here we see a man saving time while walking and doing it. Two in one," Emeljanovas stated.

Since sharing the video, Emeljanovas has received numerous reactions from other internet users. Many have shared similar experiences, with some admitting to doing exercises while waiting for elevators alone or even filming themselves lifting groceries. This indicates that incorporating physical activity into everyday tasks is not an uncommon practice.

Emeljanovas hopes to encourage others to find unconventional ways and times for exercise, emphasizing that it doesn't solely mean going to the gym. He believes that people can be physically active whenever the opportunity arises, promoting a more integrated approach to health and wellness.
