Dr. Liebowitz's Workout

I hear so often from so many patients that they just don’t have time to workout. I find it curious, because to me I don’t think that’s true. It really means exercise is a low priority and they would rather spend time doing other things.

Do you realize that most of us spend more time at traffic lights than exercising. That’s a pretty sad commentary on our lifestyle.
I’m often pressed for time as well with many responsibilities and tight schedules. I always make time for exercise, every day. To be sure I can get the workout in I have set up a mini circuit training program without even having to leave my bedroom. Even if I only have 10 or 15 minutes to workout I will do something.I believe anything is better than nothing.

Typical 30-45 minute workout

Warm up – 3000 meters on the Stationary Rower by Concept 2 - 11 ½ minutes
50 bench sit ups on the rower with foot straps (10 lb medicine ball on chest) 5 minutes
4X 500 meter rowing sprints 1 minute rest interval - 10 minutes
35 push ups on Perfect Push up Rotating paddles 2 minutes
2-3 sets of 10 reps circuit weights on Adjustable Plate Bowflex dumbbells; two hand presses, alternating one hand presses, two hand curls, one hand curls, tri cep curls x10
10-15 minutes
Yoga stretches if I have time left over.

There really are no excuses. Where there is a will there is a way. Its worth it, your body will thank you later in the day.
