Here
it is, the last installment in my update on things going better than they
were back when I posted about 80/20 being an improvement. We’ve already covered supplements and diet. Today’s focus: exercise. But
the thing is, I hesitate to call it exercise, as I’m beginning to think of it
more as movement. (To loyal reader P,
pat yourself on the back.) I am “working out” less, but moving more. (But still working out. Keep reading and this will make sense.)
I
saved this one for last because while I fully recognize the importance of
regular physical movement for good health, I believe that for me, diet and supplementation are
currently getting me the biggest bang for my buck. However, movement is not negotiable. At all. (And it is certainly getting me some bang for my buck.) If we think of health as a three-legged stool, diet and
supplementation are only two legs, and without this critical third one, that stool
is gonna fall down.
(I’m
not going to get into specifics, like I do this
many planks for this many
minutes, or do this many sets of this many reps with this much weight. I’m not
qualified to give advice about that, and also, I don’t want anyone laughing at
me if I’m “doing it wrong.” I’ll give you the general stuff I do and why I do
it. But you best believe nothing I do involves pink dumbbells.)
