I’ve logged every workout I’ve done for the last 16 years - and I work out generally every day.
We also just moved in to the fourth quarter. 90 days left until the end of the year. I’m feeling pretty fit right now, but I’d like to step it up – there’s still time left.
As fall arrives and the weather cools (46 degrees and raining today), I usually start running more and get back into strength training.
I will then move into my restoration period in late November to enjoy the holidays and let my body totally recover.
Now, I’m going to focus running more, back into P90X, and improving my diet.
I was thinking about how the first thing I consume at 5AM is coffee. The body has been resting and needs to start with regular water – not coffee. We all need to consider what we put into our body as fuel.
The better the fuel, the better the engine’s performance. Our body’s performance is critical to how we perform in everything we do – everyday.
As business owners and corporate professionals, our body needs to feel good and perform to the max to get the most out everything - our family life, our careers, school, projects around the house – everything we do.
Here’s what I’m doing going forward:
- 16 oz of water first thing – not coffee first
- Eating as organic and local – almost 100% now, but it gets more difficult in the fall
- 1 gallon of water every day - critical!
- Carrot juice +4x per week - juicing makes sense, but it's a pain - I'm committing for a couple months.
Take a look at what you’re using to fuel your body. If you don’t exercise – start! We are all working animals. It’s imperative to keep all your systems working properly so you can perform energized and at your optimum.
