Bible verse: Romans 12:11-12 – Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
KISS – Keep it Simple Stupid. This is a good tagline for exercise, especially when you are getting started with a workout routine. Do not over complicate things. If you are moving your body and getting a good sweat going, this is progress. The key is being consistent. Set a goal to exercise 5 days a week. Setup a plan to follow for the week. Execute the plan. Do not make excuses for missing a workout. If you have an extremely busy day, complete a 10-minute workout at the start or end of the day. Here is a good example of a 10-minute workout that I do when I am in a time crunch.
- 60 seconds – high knees
- 3 sets of the following:
- 25 push-ups
- 30 sit-ups
- 15 chin-ups
- 50 squats
- 50 mountain climbers
