Aim for: 8 hours Play, 8 hours Rest/Sleep, 8 hours Work: Every day
- Commit to at least 10 minutes a day of exercise
- Unroll your mat and keep it like that.
- Even when you don't have time to exercise, at least get your heart pumping for a few minutes.
Here is an easy way to do that:
- Jumping Jacks: 64
- Run in place (only move the lower portion of your leg and make sure heals kick your butt): 64
- Jog lifts (Thrust knees high as if you were trying to knee your chest): 64
- Jumping Jacks: 64
20 minute exercise routine
This is a simple, yet effective, exercise routine that I developed over time. It's low impact, quiet, requires very little floor space, and won't shake your house up. Tone and strengthen your body, flatten your tummy, increase your energy, and get better sleep.
