Your Health & Fitness Style:
A sporty girl at heart, Cancer needs lots of exercise to process your
ever-shifting moods. You’re
emotionally affected by just about everything! Boxing,
running, rowing, sailing, volleyball—anything
that gets you breathing heavily will help release that pent-up
tension. Cancer
is also the sign of home and comfort, so you do well with a home gym
or a cozy yoga studio. As much as you can be a couchbound homebody, you
can also be a fierce competitive athlete. Patriotic Cancer
will do anything for her team. You could rack up a few varsity letters
and trophies in your day!
Cancer is a water sign, so try an aquatic sport is perfect like swimming, rowing, sailing or water aerobics. A run along the beach connects you with the ocean, Cancer's "divine mother." You excel at team sports, especially on an all-female team. Cancer is the sign of women, so try a women's gym like Curves or classes taught by a female instructor.
Ruled by the Moon, you may have a voluptuous "lunar" body, like curvaceous Cancers Pamela Anderson, Li'l Kim and Jessica Simpson. For tips on embracing those womanly curves, read True Beauty: Positive Attitudes and Practical Tips from the World's Leading Plus-Size Model by Cancer signmate Emme.
Sensitive Cancers need lots of nurturing, so be sure to take great care of yourself. Spend a little extra time in the steam room if your gym has one, or relax with baths, pedicures and other pampering. Take time to breathe, keep a journal or team up with a nurturing workout partner. Don't hold too much inside!
