So Ive got depression that really saps me of my motivation.

However. Fuck it. Im gonna try for 30 days at least the LAZIEST workout routine I can think of.

Firstly. Im a janitor. I work 40 hrs a week cleaning.

Every day right now, I bike 3 miles home from work.

So. Instead of building a whole program that requires me to do several moves with several sets.

Im gonna bike home. And then do 1 move! 5 sets of 4 reps. As high of resistance my body will allow.

The other day, it was 5 sets of 4 reps wide grip pull ups.

Last night was 5 sets of 4 reps bench.

Tonight will be 5 sets of 4 ab wheels.

I dont care. Im just gonna do this exact thing for a month.

So it takes me about 20 minutes to get home and about 10 to 15 minutes to bang out these reps.

Im 189 lbs right now. Im hoping to lose 10 lbs, but im not in a rush.

Imma find the hell out and see what happens.

So by my guess, Ill be doing bench press 2 or 3 times a week as well as pull ups and ab wheels.

Ill let you all know what happens in a month. If anything; it wont be a total waste of time and maybe ill at least develop a good habit.

    Good luck comrade. 30 minutes a day is plenty, I have no idea how some people power through working out for over an hour every day… the body can only do so much before you get drained.

    I did some math recently because I want to lose weight, and found that I could either do a ton of cardio… or just eat a little less calories each day. Reminds me of my family member who should be retired, but has a full-time job just to have a car and do car payments.

    Oh yeah, you pry already have something like this, but get either a calendar, or that loop habit tracker on android, and check off every day that you hit your 30 minutes. Its called don’t break the chain and is a great way to build habits.
