How to Spend 40 Minutes of Your Day

Hate the gym, but want to be stronger, fitter, leaner and look good? A super-effective workout in 30 to 40 minutes, a few times a week may be the solution.First, get a gym membership. There are several gyms to choose from and one is not better than the other.  Next, it is important to make a schedule. Writing a scheduled workout time solidifies commitment to a workout plan. After setting a time, take a day to get to know your equipment. It is important that you know how to use it properly so you will not sustain an injury.The key part to effectively working out in a commercial gym is to limit your workouts to 30-40 minutes. It is better to do shorter high-intensity workouts. Circuits are great for high-intensity workouts. A circuit is a series of strength or cardio exercises (or both) repeated a few times with little rest between sets. When lifting, it is better to do fewer reps with heavier weights. Also, lift slowly in both directions to maximize each move.Choose a cardio that is enjoyable. Cardio can range from walking to biking to rowing and more.  Finally, after every workout it is ideal to stretch. Stretching helps reset the body to a naturalposition and posture.
