While crawling around the internet, I ran into a massive list of exercises.
Curiosity strikes again!
I have decided that I will try all of them 😛 If running has taught me anything, starting small and taking it slow is the way to go. Of course, throwing in some break days would be great too 🙂
What I will do
Every day, I will try a new exercise and we start easy.
The next day we will do the same exercise we did the day before + the new exercise for that day.
Every three days is break day.
Increase length for previous exercises
Example
Day 1: Exercise A – 1 min
Day 2: Exercise A – 1 min, Exercise B – 1min
Day 3: Exercise A – 1 min, Exercise B – 1min, Exercise C – 1min
Day 4: Break Day!
Day 5: Exercise A – 2 min, Exercise B – 2min, Exercise C – 2min, Exercise D – 1min
The list
I’ve filtered out everything that requires some kind of apparatus or equipment investment, so basically all one would need for these is a floor 😉
Most of these I’ve never heard of, but then again, I only run and bike, so all this stuff is new. I don’t even know what they do.

Somewhere down the road we “stop” doing some older exercises. This is because:
A) I am trying to keep this under one hour every day
B) On top of these my primary transportation is by bike, so I spend an hour on that every day too
C) I have other things to do (like writing this blog!)
Hopefully I can manage… (Today is break day! Well, it was… like 5 minutes ago)
