Just about everyone knows that exercise is an integral part of any weight loss (or weight gain) program.

However, with people busier than ever, it can be hard to find time to exercise.

This goes back to something I wrote about it a prior post about bodybuilders feeling that when people talk about eating six times per day, they feel each meal needs to be a major affair.

Not so.

The same can be said about exercise.

People will often feel that if they cannot get in a full workout, they why even bother going to the gym at all.

Bad idea.

First, once you miss a workout—it is gone and you cannot get it back.

Second, this kind of thinking makes skipping workouts o.k.

WHAT TO DO

For the sake of example, we will say that your normal workout is walking on the track at your gym for an hour.

However, today you absolutely have no time to get to the gym for your walk.

No problem.

Try walking around the block or if you need to do some shopping make it a point to walk up and down each isle.

Don’t like that idea.

Try doing some push-ups—they are simple and quick.

O.K.

I realize that push-ups are not walking, but hey something is better than nothing.

And this can apply to your bodybuilding workouts as well.

Can’t get to the gym, do an all dumbbell workout at home.

Or take the push-up example from above and try busing out ten sets of ten reps of push-ups only resting thirty seconds between sets.

MY POINT

My point with this post is to simply say—no matter what happens, try and do something everyday.

Even if it just a short walk, it is better than nothing.

UNTIL NEXT WEEK

KEEP GOING
