Move Jutsu

Motivation is one of the key ingredients in keeping up with a fitness program or diet.  I know from personal experience in trying numerous methods, diets and regimes that the key to all of them is keeping going.
Its why I made a point of buying a book by a famous British psychologist and psychiatrist (aka: [...]

This took some time to put together as I had to balance my limited time in the morning, sleep requirements, boredom, and motivation.
If you’re anything like me then you’re probably horrendous in the morning.  Doesn’t matter how much sleep I get, I HATE the mornings like hell.
But here’s my new routine and I guarantee you’ll [...]

I’ve decided to put together a set of Golden Rules to bolster my overall programme and health. If you had any suggestions then let me know. So here goes:

Every day is active and so there are NO complete rest days.
Eat 5 portions of fruit/veg per day.
Eat a single multi-vitamin every other day.

After this I’ll be taking up the new programme I made after learning loads over this first period.
I’m also trying to integrate more exercises [...]

Okay – first things first.  I’m British so that title should say “programme” but I didn’t want to annoy any Americans by ’sounding’ French.  How I can sound French over the net I don’t know.  And why “programme” seems French is anybody’s guess.
Anyway – back to what we’re here for: My Programme!
Having done 5 days [...]

I don’t know what this exercise is called but** Its one I heard about a long time ago and yet have never picked up and actually done!
The basic premise is simple but the exercise is an absolute killer.  You need a bar/dowel/stick a piece of rope or belt and a weight.  Whether its a dumb [...]
