Yesterday I did a 35 mins workout with pushups, crunches, squats, leg-lifts, glute-bridges, planks and supermans. I didn't have too much time to do the workout and had to juggle it between project meetings and a birthday party. I think I messed up my nutrition at the party though. So it was not a good day. I really have to eat clean tomorrow and for the rest of this week. Here's hoping for a 'well balanced meals' week.

Rest Day + 30 mins workout
Took a rest day yesterday, but managed to do a complete 30 min workout today. The workout comprised of stretches, pushups, situps, crunches, supermans, planks, bicycle-kicks and leg-lifts.
Most people think that in order to workout you have to go to a gym. I have been doing all my workouts at home with just an exercise mat; and the results are phenomenal. While some minor equipment would be useful, it is not necessary in order to get a great workout. Your body has enough weight to challenge you, and even doing simple pushups can be challenging for seasoned trainers. This website is an example of the 30 mins workouts available out there that can give you the training you need without going to the gym.

33 min workout
Yesterday I managed to increase my workout time by 3 mins. In my 33 mins I managed to do stretches, pushups, situps, crunches, planks, supermans, leg-lifts and scissor-legs. Some of these exercises are actually not easy for beginners. This video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wa5Li3edwl4) shows how to do the plank with proper technique and is for more advanced trainers. However I usually do a simple plank by just holding in the plank position for about 1 min...like in this video(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHQmRINu4jU).

30 mins workout
Yesterday I did a 30 mins workout with stretches, pushups, situps, crunches, leg-lifts, planks and supermans. The motivation is difficult, but one of the ways that I motivate myself is by watching episodes of the Biggest Loser. The huge weight losses by the contestants is a real inspiration for those of us trying to get in shape. This is perhaps one of the greatest inspirations out there. If they can do it, so can we.
