Perfectly done



In theory, the perfect workout might exist.  More accurately, the perfect workout for a particular moment in time might exist, one that carefully calibrates available energy, current strength, wind chill factor, and time since breakfast, among other things.  Under most circumstances, however, I can confidently say that the Very Best Workout is the one we actually do.

We want to spend a little time planning our workouts.  We need to take a minute or two to see whether we have covered our cardio, our flexibility, and our strength exercises for various muscle groups.  And that’s really it.  We do not need to obsess about precise numbers of reps or calories per minute or exact percentage of climb.

Doing something is pretty much always better than doing nothing.

Go play.
