Workout Routine

Working in layers helps you develop overall, whole body conditioning, which eliminates weaknesses. Balance is key.

Lately, I have been receiving more and more comments on my website about what to do when one is in a rut.

Regardless of your present level of conditioning, this exercise format can work for you. It can be done by the physically disabled sitting in a chair or implemented by a seasoned athlete.

If you can't make fitness a true habit, maybe a better question is, at what point do you start craving exercise? When does it become something you look forward to enough to do regularly without putting up an internal fight?

If you think you get a better workout, or feel motivated to do a harder workout when you're listening to your favorite tunes, it's not your imagination. Recent research actually shows that people exert more effort and don't mind doing so when they're pumping to the jams.

Summer is here and there's no time left to make your workout plans. You actually have to put your bathing suit on now!

This type of fitness works the neglected muscles in your body -- those muscles that keep you from falling when you trip carrying groceries and keep you on your toes when you've forgotten you're at the end of an escalator!
