🎵”Will you still Need Me, will you still Feed Me, when I’m 64?”🎶
Can’t believe it… yesterday was my 64th birthday! Things are changing starting TODAY!
Join me! Let’s do this experiment – everyday. Let’s make a “workout sandwich”
* morning cardio
* midday weightlifting
* evening cardio
We’ll do it M,T,W,Th,F (weekends off) for two months. Make each session short, like 20 or 30 or 45 minutes tops. And don’t get crazy with effort or we might get injured. That would sabotage the whole experiment!
No need to go to the gym three times a day, most can be accomplished at home.
For weights we’ve got
* dumbbells
* stretchy-bands
* kettle balls
* water bottles in a shopping bag
For cardio we have
* mini-trampoline
* YouTube videos
* our own feet… happy-feet, dance-feet, skipping-feet, walk-the-dog feet
… there’s nothing stopping us!
Today is start day! We end in exactly two months.
DON’T WEIGH YOURSELF, DON’T MEASURE YOURSELF. LET’S MEASURE SUCCESS BY HOW GREAT WE FEEL.
At the end of each workout day make a quick journal entry like this:
* MORN: bla-bla-bla
* MID: bla-bla-bla
* EVE: bla-bla-bla
We are gonna be so healthy! MDs tell us we should exercise after every meal. How about before every meal? Yes, this is going to work perfectly!
💖 Lovies to all my pals stickin’ to the project… PROJECT WAISTLINE !
