DAY 13

Good tidings continue... 25 push-ups and 50 squats in two sets (still a paltry sum by any standards).

Let's hope the streak continues. I can already feel my posture straightening. This is the most amazing part of exercising you tend to feel on top of the world. Getting the posture right also encourages one to continue with the exercise regime.

Along with the timed exercise one must try to incorporate activity in the normal day. Like taking stairs for example is the simplest. Idea's walk and talk idea is another example.

The idea here is to constantly challenge your body. The dynamic nature of our body very quickly adapts to the circumstances we put it into. The trick is to trick your body out of complacency. We will touch on this in detail when we gradually increase the exercise routine.

I haven't touched upon the food bit up till now. Well i have put no restriction on the food and drink department. A couple of drinks have been a regular feature since DAY 1. If I stop at once I wouldn't make it... the advanced exercise regimen that is to come will automatically weed out the habits that impede the path to stay fit.
