Move
Break a sweat daily.
Every body is different and some thrive on running long distance marathons and carbing up for the fuel to do so. That is great for them. Do what makes you feel good.
For me, I feel our bodies were not built to sustain long fight or flight stress. Short bursts of high intensity work outs followed by weight lifting seems to be the key for my success and lifestyle.
I don't have time to spend hours in the gym. I try to incorporate my workout throughout the day with what I'm doing.
For instance: I wake up and stretch and meditate and pray.
Sun salutate.
I walk the boys to school and then run home with 1 minute sprints and recovery.
Circuit 2-3 days a week. Set 1 minute timer do 3 sets of five different circuit activities that alternate upper and lower body.
Push Ups (all different hand positions and variations)
Squats (add barbells to intensify) Sumo Squat Variations and Water Pump
Plank (alternate heights)
Wall sits (add barbells to intensify)
Lift Weights
Pelvic Tilts
Step Ups
Pull Ups (assisted or free)
Leg Lifts
Bar Dips
Alternating days do more cardio and play tennis or other sports or bike or do the elliptical
