I'm working on improving my health. Lifehacker has what I think might be a useful post: [1]Where to Start When You Want to Optimize Your Health: Exercise, any kind You can run, lift weights, do yoga, take classes-there are tons of options. Any exercise is better than none, and if you're feeling out of shape, try doing a little more than whatever you're currently doing. A healthy week's worth of exercise should include: Some cardio Some strength training You might be a runner who gets in a few quick strength sessions, or a lifter who hops on the rower for a little cardio once or twice a week. Or maybe you play a sport that gives you a good mix of both in every practice. If you're new to everything, explore until you find something you love. Here's the problem: there is no form of exercise that I love. I'm someone who played three sports in high school, played a bunch of intramural at uni, and even played soe semi-organized soccer and hockey (ice and roller blade) as an adult. I like to hike. I like to swim. I like to bike. I will lift weights or use a machine. I will hop on a treadmill. Love enters into none of my exercise equation. I've never experienced any kind of "high" from exercise or sports. I even ran cross country for a hot minute in high school and stopped because it was such a slog and boring. More sleep and less garbage food & stress - those I get behind whole heartedly. __________________________________________________________________ My original entry is here: [2]Where to Start When You Want to Optimize Your Health.
