• 2 days of Cardio workouts that get your heart rate up.
• 1-3 days of Flexability and Core exercises like yoga and abdominal exercises.
• 2 -3 days of Resistance Training for muscle strength and the endurance.
• Frequency- 5 days a week for change. Make it part of your routine.
• Intensity-You need to 'bring it' and challenge yourself daily.
• Variety- mix it up with cardio, flexability and resistance training.
• Time- 5 minutes is not enough and more then 1 hour is probably wasting your time.

STOP Making Excuses - Take Control

Strength is the foundation of nearly all physical goals. When you're strong, you more easily lose fat, run faster, and will want to play longer with the kids.

1. Muscle Burns Fat: So add resistance training to your routine.
2. Keep it simple: 30 minutes to 1 hour a day with a good program is plenty for results.
3. Maintain a log: Write down your workouts on a calendar. Keep track so that you can create a daily routine and feel successful.
4. Don't overdo it: Try to stick to five workouts per week. . Keeping your workouts short yet consistent can give you results and save you time. You should rotate your routine daily.
5. Take to the hills: Cardio is a must if you want to be lean and healthy. To get stronger while getting leaner, do cardio in short, intense bursts. Go to a moderately steep hill and sprint to the top, then walk back down.
