Well, here it is. I'm not fit.
My weight is fine (112-115). My BMI is great (about 19). My percent body fat is normal (around 21%). I should feel healthy, right? But- I rarely exercise! A little yoga three times a week (15-20 minutes), weights maybe once a week (10 minutes). I have an active job on my feet all day. BUT- I can't sleep well, and can't run to save my life. I've been resisting Cardio for so long, but tada! I finally bought a cheapo eliptical trainer to gently ease me into better Cardiovascular health. Today, I did twenty minutes of Cardio, plus five minutes of warm-up and warm down yoga. I feel kind of foolish because it took me longer to set up the i-pod speaker, find a playlist, and get the double knots out of my sneaker laces than to exercise! But- I took it easy, so as not to kill myself and get discouraged. Hoping to work up to 30-45 minutes on the eliptical with yoga and weights and work- sounds like enough to maintain basic health. I'm not out to be an athlete, just to avoid diseases like diabetes and heart disease. Wish me luck!
