I know that’s how most people feel like especially after a long holiday weekend. People tend to overeat and not exercise during these rare occasions. I would say that, just give yourself a break when you get off of your program. Oftentimes, you need a break from the monotony of it all. Take exercise, for instance. People do get bored doing repetitive, low-impact, hour-long exercises. Studies show that this is not healthy long-term. Dr. Al Sears’ program, called P.A.C.E., shows how it is so much better to do short bursts of intense or vigorous exercise. This is how our ancestors did it. They did intense shorts bouts of intense activity to gather food or avoid being food. A new study at the University of Missouri-Columbia shows that high-intensity exercise is the best way to reduce anxiety. Apparently, this kind of exercise enhances HGH production and optimizes brain chemistry, thereby making you feel good. So, go ahead and work it!
