Winter Hibernation aka Laziness

Somewhere between now and after my birthday, I have found myself wallowed in a stagnant pool of laziness. Between an extremely tight financial budget and the unappealing “feel” of winter, my inactivity could be described as deplorable. I have been doing martial arts, as well as dance, but the level of energy needed for me to exert during these activities is minimal. My fitness level has been built up to such where I need to do a lot, or be high impact about what im doing to see results. Another thing also saving me is my healthy diet.. The one thing ive been pretty consistent about lol.

Until I can figure out what I can do to reemerge my peak workouts there are a few things I do at home that i’m sure most you can do too. One thing I do everyday is pushups.. I have a set number I want to accomplish before the day is up (ie. 100,) so at every random opportunity I get (while home) ill do push ups in sets of 10. So lets say when I wake up in the morning, before I hop in the shower to leave ill do a set of 30. Once I get home in the evening, between cooking, working, or any random activity ill knock out the rest of the sets of 10 (either all together or spaced.) You can also do the same thing with  sit ups or crunches.. As soon as you get up, without thought, knockout between 30-50 (that will make 1 set.) Now its up to you as to how many sets your body can handle. Push yourself, but also listen to your body when it tells you to stop. As I noted in another post, jumping jacks are good to get the blood circulating as well… So if right now youre being lazy like me, or currently don’t have time for a gym, try a few of these activities out.. Theyll make a difference.
