Don’t hate me because I like to exercise and want to talk about it. Or, go ahead and hate me. That’s really your business. Or maybe you’ll look at some of these workouts and decide to try them for yourself! All I know is, if you spend as much time with your ass in a desk chair as I do, you need to dedicate a little time to moving said ass around. Or else you could end up with “Lazy Butt Syndrome.” It exists.
Anyway, I was thinking that if I’m going to revive this blog and focus a lot on the food I make and eat, I thought it would also be appropriate to share some of the workouts I do that allow me to eat all that food without turning out like the Michelen Man.
Since I ran yesterday, and normally I would do boot camp today, but we have an off week so I had to come up with my own workout. I decided an easy 30 minutes on the elliptical trainer, and then this series of upper body and core work. Note that all pull-ups and dips were done on the assisted pull-up machine, because, yeah, my guns just aren’t that big.
