More than not everyone when it comes to the length of their workouts wants to know what is enough, and my answer has always been the same; quality vs. quantity, focused mind vs. wondering mind. The reason for that is quite simple; your body awaits instructions from your mind, lack of focus brings a lack of effectiveness. It is quite a challenge to feel each movement by thinking about something totally irrelevant to the task you are performing. In my entire career as a pro-athlete I never worked my body more than one hour total a day; I even would split my routine in two 30 minutes sessions, to the point that people would call me “Speedy Gonzalez” like mouse in the cartoon (no! definitely not a gym rat).
I have spent hours in the gym before but it was either because I was training people or because I was socializing (yes I did some of that too). More time working-out is not necessarily better. The key is to have a great workout without overdoing it and I personally recommend not going over one hour in the same session. The Mind Over Body 11/11/x5 or 22/22/x5 Ultimate Cardio Toning Workout Plans will insure focused, fun and effective workouts without killing yourself or spending hours at the gym.
The key is the right routine with the right amount of exercises, focus and intensity. You can do all that safely and still get extraordinary results with my program in just 22 minutes total and when you get stronger and fitter it will last up to 44 minutes total, no bad! The purpose of the Ultimate Cardio Toning is to keep you moving by only allowing you to take very short breaks between exercises. Ultimate Cardio Toning works better for fat loss and muscle tone because it causes you to keep working your body aerobically, while still challenging your strength.
The number one turn-off for most people in fitness is time; it takes too long to workout. I can guaranty you that if it took 20 minutes to brush your teeth, people would walk around with rotten teeth, that’s why they do walk around with ill organs such their brains, hearts, lungs or livers; they just assume that it takes too long to train those –which is just a myth– I think it is more a fact that they don’t have a mirror that can show them how they are neglecting their vital organs.
I often refer to the shower or showers we take everyday because we know if we don’t we would stink and embarrass ourselves with others. The fact of the matter is that a shower leaves visual traces of cleanliness; you can see your body clean in the mirror but you can’t see the inside, which is why I call mental and physical training the “shower of the inside”. If you take a shower for the outside why aren’t you doing the same for the inside of your body and mind? So now think of it next time you want to skip a workout for more that a few days; it will stink so bad inside and if you don’t think about it you won’t know it, and after a while…you see where I am going. Take a daily shower inside and out.
