    Default Jogging on the spot?

    I’m looking to get back into some cardio (what with health problems I’ve let it slip) I’m not ready or confident yet to get back on the road so I’m wondering about jogging on the spot and its effectiveness perhaps combined with star jumps and burpees as a way of starting to get back into aerobic exercise and toughen up the leg muscles.

    Opinions?
    I believe that legends and myth are largely made of
    “truth”, and indeed present aspects of it that can only be received in this mode; and long ago certain truths and modes of this kind were discovered and must always reappear.

    J.R.R. Tolkien

    Indeed it might be a basic characteristic of existence that those who would know it completely would perish, in which case the strength of a spirit should be measured according to how much of the “truth” one could still barely endure-or to put it more clearly, to what degree one would require it to be thinned down, shrouded, sweetened, blunted, falsified.

    Jump rope, stationary bicycling, jumping jacks, mountain climbers, pretty much anything that elevates your heart rate will help.

    I'm pretty sure jogging in place does little to nothing.

    Yeah, don't be a pussy, lift heavy metal.

    Cardio is not everything. Man needs regular adrenalin shake ups to be centered. Try pushups as many as you can in two sets and shadow boxing, also as long as you can twice. The adrenalin will ground and center things.

    It's what you think about doing when you spot a pub next to bakery.

    If I ever win the lottery I am building a pub with a special bar to get a Greggs with your pint.
