Minute #140 | The Basic Exercise Plan

When it comes to exercise – are you at a total loss and don’t have a clue where to begin?  Hmmm… you must have forgotten everything you learned when you were a kid.

I remember when I was a small child spending hours and hours running and exercising.  We used to call it playing – and you did it too.  And in gym class the coach in the funny shorts helped us learn about exercise.  Then, after high school… we forget everything – got married, ate meat loaf got fat. 

When it comes to exercise, folks are always telling me, “I don’t know what to do”.  Sure you do. 

When you run off to the health club, just remember that being fit means having a strong heart, strong muscles and flexibility.  Run, walk, jog, bike or take a class for a strong heart – that’s cardio.  Lift weights, do push-up, pull-ups or crunches for strong muscles – that’s resistance.  And the best part?  Sit on the floor and stretch – that’s flexibility. 

Do those three things and exercise will quickly become play all over again.

Hey, it’s all about moving – do some now so that you can do more, later.
