Welcome to another week! This week, we’ll continue cardio, but this time we’ll focus on getting outside. The weather in Michigan is terrific, so I’ll be walking this week.

Monday – Saturday: Walk 20 minutes

If we have inclimate weather, I’ll hit our supine bicycle.

Variety is the key to keeping up the exercise habit, particularly when you’re at home (the gyms in my area are still closed). I also opt for a short but intense workout. I’ve never been into long bouts of cardio, but short, intense ones are really efficient.

If you’re not a huge fan of cardio, give the HIIT a try or try short stints of cardio a few times a day. It works.

Well, that’s it for today.

See you at the finish line!

“The secret of your future is hidden in your daily routine.” – Mike Murdock

It’s Monday Motivation on Daily Ramblings. This quote is appropriate for today! I am a stickler for a daily routine or daily rituals. I arrived upon this current state by reading through a lot of the habits literature and came to the realization that our daily routines are merely a collection of habits.

Some of my daily habits are:

Reading multiple books (a few pages up to a chapter depending on length)

Writing (Blog Posting and Book Writing)

  • Exercise (currently two cardio sessions each day with weight lifting Mon-Fri)
  • Spiritual Practices (Dream Journaling, Daily Reflection, Reading Spiritual Works)
  • Daily Learning (Currently a Course on the US Presidents, Course on Happiness and Well Being offered by Yale on Coursera, and a Nonfiction Book Writing Course on Udemy)
  • Social Media and Connection (stay in touch with family, friends, and interact with people at the coffee shops, gymnasiums, and libraries I frequent)

This week’s exercise routine:

2 cardio sessions 35 minutes each day (Monday – Sunday)

Weight Lifting: Monday (Quadriceps, Lower Abs, and Calves); Tuesday (Chest and Shoulders); Wednesday (Arms); Thursday (Hamstrings, Lower Back, Upper Abs, and Calves); and Friday (Upper Back)

I find these rituals to be extremely productive and fruitful.

I hope each of you has a tremendous week!

Until next time…

Dave
