Time crunch workouts?

[SweetZ 1]

any ideas?

Due to a 1 hour and 20 minute commute each way, I am gone for 12 hours a day and have little to know time for exercise.

Anyone have any ideas for exercise in a time crunch?

Dear Sweetz:

I am a year post post band, and approaching 140 pounds lost. I would suggest that you consider access to a gym on your way home or right after work before you head home. That way your drive home is a recovery time. During that time you can alternate core/weights and then an ellyptical/treadmill on the other. I found that I was so tired when I got hoime it was hard, so I tried to hit a gym or walk/run right after work, and then head home.

If the gym is not an alternative, a stationary bike at home is great because you can read or watch tv and catch up on the day.

Last if non of those work, go to your local bookstore and purchase a book on core training workouts that you can do at home after work. There are numerous workout tapes also that are 30 minutes. But a 30 minute core workout really makes a difference.

Good luck,

Rob
