Programs

programs are good motivators. they tend to rejuvenate me and spice up my routine. last week i started two new programs.

1. is "sizzle calories" 18 minute workout session posted by Self Magazine. i tested it out and it seems to be working. here is what you do. pick any cardio, warm up for 4 minutes and then sprint for 30 seconds, recover for 4 minutes and sprint again for 30 seconds. it's an interval workout, i like those. Self magazine says to do this workout 6 days a week for a month, combined with weight lifting, to see results.

2. is my fellower health blogger at livewell blog posted a link to the push up challenge. i started this last week, at 15 push ups! the goal is to work up to 100 by the end of the year. for more info check out her blog at thinkwellactwelllivewell.blogspot.com

happy pushing!
