Try This Easy 4-Minute Workout
I have a confession to make. While I may talk every day about nutrition, I think being sedentary is the biggest issue negatively affecting people’s health. Most people in North America don’t exercise regularly. They may go for a daily walk, which is a great start, but it’s not enough to combat being sedentary.
What if I could help you move more with an easy workout that is actually quite powerful?
A 4-Minute Amazing Workout, With No Equipment?
Dr. Zach Bush has a little four-minute workout, that I want to challenge you to do, twice a day. It gets your blood pumping and works all of your major muscle groups. With just a few simple movements, your body will produce nitric oxide that feeds your muscles, helping them to repair.
Anyone can do this easy workout, and you'll get more from it than many people get from a one-hour fitness routine. If you work in front of the computer like I do, you need this! Watch your energy go through the roof and you’ll feel great.
Will you try this easy workout? Let me know how it goes for you!

I learned about Dr. Bush’s workout (The Nitric Oxide Dump?) a few years ago, so I’ve been doing it ever since. I love it! But (and you know there had to be a “but”, LOL), I don’t do it frequently enough. Sometimes it’s only a few times a week. As the primary caretaker of my veteran husband who has had multiple strokes, four bladder cancer surgeries, etc. over the past few years, I find myself slacking in the self-care category – and it shows big time! 🙁
This is such a simple workout that there’s almost NO excuse for me NOT to do it every day! I’ve found myself doing it in the kitchen while I’m prepping meals, in the bedroom while I’m making the bed or folding clothes, etc. I don’t need to set aside a certain time to pull it off. So, what’s my excuse? Oh, I don’t know… there’s a million of ‘em (rolling eyes). 🙂
I don’t make New Year’s Eve resolutions… never have. I feel as though they set me up for failure too often. Having said that, I’m determined to get my “butt” moving more frequently – not because it’s a new year, but because, at 72 going on 73, I need to be as strong and healthy as possible; not only for my husband, but for our adult kids. I don’t want to be a burden to them any sooner than necessary. 🙂
I’m so grateful to have the ability to move well at my age. I thank God every day. I tell myself to build on that gratitude by taking care of the body he loaned me while I’m here. So, even though I fail at this commitment more times than I’d like to admit, I’m making a promise to myself to prioritize “me” time, more often.
I’ve been following you for years, Robyn and am grateful for all the great information you share with your readers. Have a Blessed New Year!
