Lack of exercise is one of the worst things about being on the computer 12 hours a day! You have to take the time to make it a priority or otherwise it will just keep getting pushed out of the way for other more 'important' tasks.

We do P90X and swear by it. It's the most kick butt exercise program I've ever tried - DH too. He can't stand exercise videos but these are different. Oh and from a marketing standpoint? If you did a blog on P90X it would probably be a huge hit. It's one of the hottest things in exercising today because people see results. It's not for the weak though - definitely don't try it unless you want to really push yourself. It's one of those, I hate it... but I love it!

I'm an old fart.
So, that means I've seen a lot of stuff (Fads) come and go.
Common fact is, you need to 1) move enough to challenge your heart.2) do it regularly
Pretty simple plan.
Covert Bailey, odd name but, a knowledgable guy as far as exercise and fat loss is concerned.i

Main take-away from his info is,regular exercise which has 1)steady work and 2) sprints will get you fit and burn fat off. Sprint could mean run faster for a bit then jog or it could be do 15-20 fast reps with a kettlebell, really not that important.

Also, your goals determine you type of exercise.
If it is fat burning you exercise in a certain heart rate zone.
If you wish endurance for sport it is a different zone.

To burn fat the most effective zone is 60-70% of your "Maximum" heart rate.
That is determined by subtracting your age from the number 220.
Actually there are more complicated methods that are more accurate than that but,
it is close enough.

I used to sell exercise equipment. I was a bit unique in that I really wanted my customers to succeed. Because of that drive, I would research how I could help them achieve their weight loss "with out fail".

Utimately, tracking ones heart rate with an accurate monitor will ensure you get your goal, "IF" you actually use it, and actually do the work.

I also was able to help motivate obese people using skills I developed with NLP training.

In the entire country of hundreds of locations selling the same exact equipment, I had a return rate that was insanely negligible and earned bonuses that were in the top ranks.

There were better sales people that sold more but, the had far more bounce backs than I.

We only have one life to life unless someone is hiding something from us so, get off your butt, toss out or at least turn off the boob tube.
Of all the countless hours of TV watching how much ultimately give your more benefit than mindless sedation?!

Enough, reading about losing weight. Get up, get out and get going!
Shame on you if you have children that are overweight! Get them fit too.

  • Wide-grip chin-ups for lats/back

Thanks Alex for correcting me...I should of mentioned that I'm a 31 yr old Filipino that is 5' 8" and tip the scales at 140 lbs. (Need more specs? blood pressure 120/85 - bodyfat less then 9%. You can see I'm not a hard-core bodybuilder...)

Thanks for your input on chinups.
As for chinups I did the narrow grip hands facing towards you. When I lift I touch my knees with my elbows at the same time.

Hell yeah I workout every day (try to at least) because sitting at a computer 24/7 is horrible for your body and your health. Even if you just take a 30 minute walk / jog it will do you wonders, if you aren't going to really exercise at least to cardio

Exercising takes a lot of discipline especially if you're someone who prefers to be on the couch all day. It's all about getting your mindset straight and telling yourself you wanna lead a healthier life.

Hi all, I live by the coast and for me a long walk by the sea refreshes body & soul. Getting outside in natural light for a while every day works great.

Excerising is life. Sitting at the computer at all day is horrible for your long-term health. I suggest taking all of your breaks outside - get fresh air, mediate, and think about what you can do better!

Hi everyone!

I excersise 5-6 days a week, in the morning. First I excersise my mind through Meditation 15-30 minutes.

Then I weight train or do plyometrics with Chelean Extreme by Beach Body. It's like the lighter version of P90X.

I find that if I don't work out, it's harder to focus and get the job done when I jump online. Anyone else have that problem?

A great workout always warms up my brain and gets my creative juices flowing. I get a lot of ideas while on the treadmill.

to add to this, DRINK WATER!! If you can get into the habit of properly hydrating yourself, you can really get better results. You'll have more energy, better health and metabolism.

I regularly drink about a gallon of water a day. Studies have shown your brain works far better when it stays in a nice bath of water. One of the things I do to keep myself on task is, everytime I look at my water bottle, I take a drink. No matter what. Soon it becomes habit!

I do some stuff regularly, but not at the comptuer.
I do BJJ twice a week, wrestling 1 a week, boxing twice a week, gym 3 times a week, try go swimming 1 mile at least once a week. sometimse some intervals. yet it's not while I'm at the computer - I go for regular workouts and training sessions.
this is something I always wanted to do, but never could afford due to working hours. now it's all pretty flexible, so it's like a dream come true.

That eye exercise thing is great. I also do Ferris wheels where I make big circles with my eyes.

These techniques are originally from the Bates Method

This is sooo true..

I've been letting myself go, turning into a slob (its starting to show)


I still do pushups though, with my legs elevated (harder, esp at 225 lbs) and other workouts that require no weights.

I really need to start running again though!!

Allot of good advice and fitness tips here.

For those of you doing the P90X thing, you are all awesome physical specimens. After watching their advertisements on TV, one thing did seem clear to me. Unless the box includes instructions on rolling back my age to the early twenties when I was in better shape, their workout might actually shorten my life span instead of lengthen it.

The bottom line for me is that I remember to move long enough and often enough to get oxygen into the blood stream and then pump it to my rapidly diminishing brain cells. For that I prefer walking 30 to 60 minutes per day, at least five days per week. It's also a good time to think, or listen to a seminar on my MP3 player.

Also, I find that it is important to stretch out after walking to avoid back problems as a result of sitting at the computer all day.

That's a really good point. My mate is training to be a fitness instructor and he is testing routines on me. I'm kind of like his little guinnea pig...

Anyway, last week he nearly killed me but it felt awesome to push my body beyond the 'sitting at the computer' position.

Here's to more of it

I need exercise on a daily basis, otherwise I get depressed and I can't think clearly. Exercise always makes me feel euphoric and gives me the energy to devote my time to affiliate marketing.

I swim, do pullups, pushups, some high kicking like in taekwondo.

If you are all sitting at the computer, and want a quick exercise that can be done at home, you should try burpees:

1. Do a regular bodyweight squat while letting your hands touch the floor.
2. Transition to a pushup position at the top.
3. Do a pushup.
4. Get back up into the squat position
5. And JUMP! As high as you can!

You can search for 'burpees' in Google, and you will see what I mean. These burpees will kill you if you are a newbie, but if you do them religiously, your fat will be stripped off your body! At least that's what happened to me.

Take care and exercise to your heart's content!

Most of the time when I do pushups my hands are 22" apart

The six pack abs probably come from doing chinups with weights strapped strapped to my ankles. (I only weigh 140lbs so I have to add weights to make it count ;-)

Good Luck!
Thanks mate ,

I do not think i will have to attach weights to my ankle since my weight is enough ,LOL!,but that pushups for triceps is still not clear to me,but then i am not renowned for having a sharp mind and a nice grasping power LOL!.

good tips

jumping jacks are good too.

Try Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred - good workout and it's free on youtube.

Another group of exercises on youtube is by sparkpeople - worth checking out, especially because it's free.

I would rather believe in God and die finding out there isn't a God then not believe in God and die finding out THERE IS A GOD.

I walk from my place to the subway, to and fro takes me about half an hour. That's my daily exercise! And I've just started playing tennis twice a week.

It's definitely good to exercise because when you're always in front of the computer, you're almost like a coach potato just that your fingers are doing lots of exercises! :P

Just a quick tip - if anyone is nervous about going to the gym because of how they will look or what they know - DON'T BE.

The belief that I would look like an idiot in the gym is what kept me from not going for too long.

I have never met anyone in the gym with an attitude - maybe I am just lucky, but even some of the most shredded guys in there would answer my questions, spot for me and help when they could.

If you do something stupid or dangerous they will tell you.

I just wanted to let people know that because that nervousness kept me out of the gym for too long.

Now this is really more interesting to do start your work daily with a warm up exercise. I might try your advice for a quick daily exercise before sitting in front of your computer to start a day of work.

Lightbulb Re: How many of you Warriors exercise?

This is a really interesting thread. It's nice to see so many active people here.

After working from home full time on IM, I found myself getting a little soft around the belly for the first time ever. It was quite the wake up call, as I used to bike a hilly route to work 4 days a week 30 mins each way and was pretty hard.

The answer I found came in 2 parts:

1) Decide to. A cliche I know, but really, it works. No "I'm a bit busy so...".

2) The "Seven Minute Secret". If you're feeling buggered, commit to just 7 minutes. Chances are you'll get into the swing of it by then and continue on. It works, and not just for exercise!

Here's one tip for joggers here. Jogging at a steady pace is pretty inefficient. Try interval-jogging, something like one minute normal pace, 30 seconds fastish, repeated to make up your 30 minutes or however long you jog for.

Or do it via distances: 2 street lights at normal pace, one fastish.
You'll burn more calories and get a lot fitter. Really, truly, efficient.

Good luck all!

Exercising is very good for your mind and soul but I also found that taking a 48-72 hour mini vacation once every 2-3 months is also good for you mind and soul and this recharges your emotional battery.

Last year, I used to go to Niagara Falls for 2 days without my laptop and it did me a lot of good. I will probably go in a few weeks again to recharge my emotional battery since I had a tough few months in my IM business.

Every day at least a brisk half hour walk. The rest is diet. Though I'm looking at getting back into weightlifting, I'm happy to say I've lost and kept off around 15 pounds. This is why I love summer, so bright warm and cheerful, just makes you want to get out there.

I will admitt that since starting IM I have become a little cuddlier. Thanks for the advice.

I have benched over 400 pounds for reps, and do a body builders work out I also run 6 miles every other day and do sprint repeats on the track and I 'm only 212 pounds and 6 foot 2.....doing 100's of pushups won;t build any solid strength....you need heavy weights....and keep progressing to higher levels...then see what you can do.
I know there's a few guys in warriors who lift weights.....so I am not the only guy....Take care

I try to brisk walk and jog around the neighborhood twice or thrice a week. It improves stamina and boosts the immune system. I think all of us need exercise for better health.

Thanks for your advice, runfast.
Yes, taking care of our body certainly helps us keep our mind healthy.

Personally, I practice regularly each morning.
Also, after being stuck by some blocking problem, evening long walk allows me to think more clearly.
Yes, mind and body are certainly close related.

Excellent.
The fact that you get to workout and work at the same time is priceless in itself. And lets face it, most of us who spend time on the computer screen (whether working or not/whether making money or not, simply facebooking or something) develop laziness, tiredness and a big pot of belly fat over time.

Your Idea may be simple but It definitely is creative and effective. I personally do something similar but will try this as well.
Thanks man.
Respect

I walk just about everyday. My car was totaled a month ago and I have had to rely on public Transportation for my commutes. I walk 3 miles at least 4 days a week. I am involved with at least two hiking clubs here. I am used to doing 6-10mile hike which is no big deal for me. A few weeks ago I had myself check out and I was told I am in fantastic health. They told me to avoid the fried foods and eat Subway. I know me excersizing has made a tremendous difference in my overall health.
