snow storm and fitness

With the snow storm it is difficult to make it to a gym to workout. This is another reason why having a routine that you can do in the safety of you own home is important. No need to travel in the cold weather, icy roads and less time spent away from your family.

Circuit Training

Circuit training is great way to get into shape. With a good circuit routine a person can exercise their entire body in a short amount of time. Not only will the muscles get a workout but the cardio system will also be trained.

I used a circuit to prepare for brazilian jiu-jitsu tournaments. The one I used was tough and definitly was for the well trained adn conditioned. I am now doing a lighter version of the exercise circuit.

If you do not do any circuit training currently I recommend that you ad it.

I am planning on recording the circuit and offering it pro bono to everyone. So subsribe to this blog to be notified when it is ging given away.


Ever do circuit training?

Variety is Key

One key factor in fitness success is you ability to exercise consistently. This is not to say that you should always do the same exercise all the time. But that you should exercise consistently and that the exercise you do can vary. Run one day, lift the next. Circuit training on Monday and then Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) the Wednesday. The variety will greatly help reduce the odds of your getting bored and quit exercising.

Change of routine

The other day I went for a run. First time in quite a while. The feeling I had the next day reminded me of one of the important things to do when improving your condition. That thing is to change your routine. The change can be accomplished in a number of ways. Speed, amount of weight, number of sets, number of repititions, etc.

When thinking of resolution goals for the coming year alswo think of how you will do things differently. This will increase your chances of reachig your goals.

How to find time to exercise

Finding time to exercise can be a challenge. I am a self employeed business owner so all the business responsibilities fall onto me. How to find time to workout?

The best way I have found is to exercise at home. No travel time to and from a gym or club. The travel time is perhaps 30 seconds to the living room where I do my home fitness circuit.

It has become a pleasant part of my morning because as I workout at my own pace (I never have to wait to use equipment) I watch my favorite news station (Fox and Friends).

I save time and money and I keep my fitness level.
