That word makes the control freak inside me cringe. What is "exercise"? How many minutes is enough to make someone fit? 30? 45? Are minutes even enough? When i was young 45 min to an hour of doing grapevines with Jane Fonda was enough. Then it was 20 minutes of Buns of Steel. Today, there's yoga, pilates, cross fit, treadmills, ellipticals, P90X, Insanity and Zumba...Whew! Did i cover all of them? Ha! Not even close lol.
So, what's the perfect combination of exercise and time? BEATS ME!
What i do know is that you have to do whatever routine you find that realistically fits into your life. It should be an added bonus to your lifestyle, not a hinderance. During my journey I have found that exercise is not as important as movement is. Find what you like to do and do it. Always try new things. Remember you never know what you can do until you try to do it.
This weeks workout routine is simple and my loved ones can do it with me if they wish.

- Tuesday- 30 minute jog
- Wednesday- 12 minute crossfit, 20 min walk
- Thursday- rest day
- Friday- 12 minute crossfit, 20 min walk

Our journey continues with truth in exercise.
