Workout Routines,
Not
just for Gym
monkeys any more.
Combine a variety of workout routines to alleviate the tedium of doing
the same thing over
and over again.
Sadly, one of the biggest problems with most people losing weight is
their inability to
continue with a physical exercise program.
If you cannot keep up a regular exercise program, the chances of losing
weight and keeping
it off are practically nil.
Standard workout routines are fine, and work, if you have a physical
trainer or the self
control to push you through the tedium of doing the same exercises 3 to
5 times
a week, every week.
Shake it up from time to time, switch the order in which you do
exercises.
Change which days of the week you work on each muscle group.
It is wise to work on one muscle group at a time. It allows you to
concentrate on really
pushing those muscles in as large of a variety of ways as possible.
But this is not necessary
As an example, check out the Television
Workout Routine, which advocates working out the full body
in one exercise sitting, picking one muscle group per commercial break.
This
is basically doing 6 short workout routines in an hour.
Heck, try something like this … Sunday
- Run around on the play ground, using as many pieces of equipment as
you can.
Monday
- Television Workout
Tuesday
- 30 Minute Fast walk
Wednesday
- Television Workout
Thursday
- Scrub the floor on hands and knees
Friday
-Television Workout
Saturday
- Push Mow and hand edge the lawns.
Yes, the Television Workout is in here three times,
shake it up, and change what exercises you do on which days.
Do different modifications of each exercise during each workout.
How many different types of pushups can you find?
How many ways can you do a sit-up
What about floor squats, chair squats, and lunges on different days?
Variety will help you stick with it longer.
