If you have been around Looking Joli Good for any amount of time, you know that I love to workout! When I hurt myself last year, once I finally admitted to myself that I could no longer work out, I didn’t know what to do with myself.

It’s been a really long year of healing and very slow progress. Since I have finally made some major progress in the healing department, and I have begun to work out.

I’ve been dying to get back into a regular workout routine.  While I am still not healed enough to jump back into my previous level of exercising, I’ve started to do some simple workouts.  I’ve also learned to listen to my body and take it super slowly.  There is no rush and no point in reinjuring myself or undoing any progress.

I have restarted back at square one… although that’s not even true, it is actually more like square -100.  I decided there is no place better to pick up than exactly where I started 11 years ago… working out with Leslie Sansone.

She is so encouraging and always so happy.  She does extremely simple exercises that are easy to follow along with.  Despite her exercises being low impact and easy to follow, I still have to simplify and modify the movements.  It is all part of listening to the cues that my body is giving me.

If you decide to join me on my road to recovering my physique, you can start with this happy one-mile walk. Don’t forget to keep good form, warm-up before, and stretch out after the exercises!  Listen to your body and do what is within your ability.  Work up to a higher level of activity as you feel you can and as you get stronger.

Ready?  No excuses, let’s do it!

You may not realize it, but flexibility is just as important for you as strength and cardio!  Sometimes I am so sore from a previous intense workout that I need to focus for a few days on flexibility and stretching.  This is a quick 15-minute flexibility workout by one of my favorites Kelly from Fitness Blender!

You don’t need a bunch of gym equipment to get yourself into shape.  You don’t even need hand weights, all you need is your own body weight.  I love to use my own body weight for strength training!  I can tell you from personal experience that these 8 moves will help to build your strength!

Body weight exercises | lookingjoligood.wordpress.com

Michele Olson, Ph.D., professor of exercise science at Auburn University Montgomery designed this simple 8 move program.  She suggests that if it is done 4 times a week for 6 weeks, you will see an increase in your overall strength.  If you would like, you can check out the original article for yourself at http://www.realsimple.com/health/fitness-exercise/workouts/body-weight-exercises

Be sure to use good form when performing these moves!  (Besides the lunges, I love all of these moves! I still HATE lunges! ) 

Keep moving!  With these simple 8 moves there are no excuses!

I always like to start out the new year with a great stretching workout!

You may not realize it, but flexibility is just as important for you as strength training and cardio!  Sometimes I am so sore from a previous intense workout that I need to rest my muscle for a few days and focus on flexibility and stretching.  This is a quick 5-minute flexibility workout by Bowflex is such a great all over body stretch.  Sometimes I do this quick routine on days that I don’t have time for a full workout but want to stretch out my muscles anyway.

Remember to keep proper form and warm up before and stretch after you exercise!

Having strong abs not only helps you to look better but it will also improve your posture as well as decrease back pain. This 15-minute workout uses cardio to target the belly fat and tone your abs.
