First Workout for 2011

My recommendation for your first workout back after the holidays is to take it a bit easier than you normally would.

You may (or may not) have had any exercise in the past two weeks, so it's ok to ease back into your routine. Heading in full tilt might derail your efforts, make you soar and in turn make you not want to work out again for the rest of the week.

I would start off with some light-to-moderate cardio activity. 30-45 minutes is fine. Bike, Treadmill, Stairs, Elliptical, or other.
Followed by some abdominal exercise - 5 minutes worth, and stretching.



  1. Crunch Twist
  2. Ball Crunch
  3. Bicycle Kick
  4. Oblique V - Up
  5. * Complete each for 60-90 seconds.


Day #2 we'll get back to weights! Aren't you excited!! ;^)
