Finding Time to Exercise
Maria Gracia has posted 7 tips on where to find chances to do excerises. They are very practical and easy to do. I may not able to find excuses on not doing exercises anymore. These are the tips I like:
- Skip the escalator and elevator. Take the stairs.
- Do some calisthenics or ride a stationary bike while watching your favorite television program.
- Do some simple stretches, while you’re on the telephone and you’re on hold.
How do you find time to excerise? Did you do something like this?

I ride my stationary bike 6 days a week, twice a day. 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes after work. It took some training to get up early enough, but once I get into the routine I miss it when something gets in the way. The results have been great for me, having lost 45 pounds so far. Eat right, exercise.

I commute to work on my bike. That way, I’m forced to exercise, especially once I get to work. No way back home unless I hop back on!
It helps that I have a friend that meets me a couple of times a week to ride in. But I’ve now done it enough that it’s just second nature to pick up the bike and go.

Re: Walking to work and perspiring
A lot of workplaces have shower facilities where you can clean up. At a minimum, a lot of clean up can be done in a restroom. Google on permutations of bicycle commuting and clean up, and you’ll find that a lot of people have found ways to work around the inconviences of sweat.
Cheers,

I suggest Matt Furey’s Combat Conditioning program. In my experience it works (don’t underestimate those hindu squats as i did, paid for it with sore legs for 3 days :) ), and the book is (relatively) cheap (US$30 is nothing to a lot of people, specially for the value of that). Time needed for a complete CC workout? about 15 minutes. Equipment needed? just your body. That’s why i liked it. Pavel Tsasouline’s Naked Warrior book is useful too and similar, but he has more of a sadistic streak on him :)
Google for that, i don’t have the links here, and if i post them it’ll sound more like an infomercial, which i dislike :)

Could someone explain to me what a Hindu Squat is and how to do it. Thanks.
