21 Days

Published by mdmnore88 at 11:48 am under 21 Days Edit This

There have been studies showing that it takes 21 days to create a new habit.  Why on Earth would anyone want to create a habit you ask?  Think about good habits-exercise, drinking more water, eating one extra serving of vegetables a day.  You want to get yourself in the habit of incorporating these types of things automatically into your daily life.  Many even use the 21 days to create a new habit to replace an old habit.

My 21 days will focus on cardio exercise.  Why cardio specifically?  I have small weights at home where I get a little strength in every day.  Nothing major, but enough to have a quick toning workout.  I do 30 pushups every morning and planks as well.  My goal is vanity.  I want to look hawt.  I am overweight, but surprisingly in pretty good shape.  I enjoy running, therefore my goal is to do some type of running/walking for an hour everyday for 21 days.  According to research the fastest way to lose weight is an hour of cardio a day.  Hopefully it will turn into a habit.  This is a prequel to something that will be unveiled on Thursday (Thanks Kelly !)

Also, I am not going to turn this blog into my personal fitness blog.  That is what this is for.  I wanted to just give you a heads up on some things to come.  Wish me well with the cardio and if you want updates on 21 days check out my other blog .

    Everyday? Wow! That is certainly ideal but not feasable for me. I wish I could work out every day, I’d look absolutely perfect. I can barely fit in a few days a week anymore.

    Good luck with the exercise plan! Remember all it takes are small steps, just a lot of them :)
