Notebook, March 2007

Notebook is a freaky magazine which I’ve never really looked at before, but this month they have a great two page spread about energising workouts. Twenty minutes a day is the projected time to change you from sloth to machine.

Pg 56 - Instant Energy

The research this article is based on was carried out by the University of Georgia in the US, and while I haven’t read their findings, I have seen the way my clients walk away from a workout far more energised than when they arrived. Twenty minutes is a really manageable amount of time for most people, even if you’re at home with children, or working for yourself.

The ideas presented here are dancing, kickboxing, skipping (if you can do it for twenty minutes, let me know!), hiking and cycling. While some of them require more than twenty minutes to make it to a venue, you could always pick and choose depending on what you’re able to do on certain days.

This article also provides information on eating for energy, something more of us should pay attention to. The article gives a link, www.blackmores.com.au which promises more advice on eating right, and may be worth checking out. ***
