Unfortunalely I don't seem to be very regular on it. Then again some days on the job I may make15 to 20 trips up and down three flights of stairs on the run and other days I maybe doing yard work.
Now it's not the only way I'm managing it, am taking avandia and watching diet. |
Aerodyne's are great, I built a few while I was working at a shop over x-mas. Lots of people love them!
Being regular about exercise is a toughie, motivation, time, sleep, blah blah...But even 30 mintues is better than no mintues! So keep at it! That is the key to regular exercise, just keep at it.
Also, it's a good idea to vary methods of exercise..Unless you are highly motivated or specializing in one thing(i.e. swimming competition, bike racing). Try riding two days a week, walking another two, then maybe run(ugh), hike, or if you can, rollerblade. Rest is impotant, take at least one day a week to rest up, and it's not bad to take a week off every few months.
