Exercise back in the mix

Posted on December 18, 2021January 9, 2022 by John

Well I have been dragging my legs on this, but now that my energy level on keto has stabilized it’s time to start exercising regularly again.  Last time I did the krav maga fitness thing which was pretty extreme, like a boot camp.  It certainly worked but since then I have learned that much effort is not necessary to get the results I want.  So I am going to ease into this and focus first on mobility since I have definitely lost some range of motion being sedentary since the pandemic began (outside of my hiking).

I chose two things:

  1. Intuflow, which I use as a warm up
  2. GMB’s Elements program as the workout.

Both are all about functional mobility.  I have quite a few of the GMB programs so maybe I will work through them, although I may mix it up with some HIIT workouts.

First workout went well and I did it in the morning without breakfast or tea.  I thought that would be a problem but it was not!  I definitely feel a bit crusty from my sedentary ways tho.

Today’s post-workout weigh in: 170.2 lb
