Are you looking for a dose of high energy with your blog reading? Have you found yourself in a funk in the middle of the week? Maybe you think that you’re just not getting the right motivation from the latest health news. Well I may have the answer to your reading dilemma and that’s a power packed blog from Carla Birnberg called mizfitonline.com.
This is not your run of the mill, ho hum; “I think I’ll pour myself another cup of coffee” reading material. This is a wake up the world is in overdrive refresher that at times takes your breath away. The style may take a minute to get used to, but you’ll soon find out that the subjects are things you’ve been thinking about in the back of your mind, or you just may be a little too preoccupied to delve a little deeper. The humor is funny and I mean the wise cracking person that sat next to you in high school funny. You know the type of person that made you burst out laughing while the teacher was writing a math problem on the board, and they just sit there like they have know idea why you’re making a fool of yourself. That’s the humor I’m getting from Carla.
This site is more than that too. You’ll find videos that show you how to do a workout correctly like her Monday Facetime. Games like the current scavenger hunt and superfantabulous supernoots. Topics that cover issues with fitness and diet, as well as her own brand of pointing out things of interest. Of course much of the fun has to do with the comments on her posts. You’re never quite sure what answer you’ll get back, but Carla makes you check back just to see.
This wound up bundle of energy will keep you thinking about fitness and diet in a way that is very unique to this community. If you want something different than the same old blog, you’ll be happy that you found mizfitoneline.com as another way to start your day

Is Friday Your Missed Exercise Day?
When I started to get moving on a workout routine I read many a blog post on what others did when they initially began theirs. I always have one major goal in life (cliché’ as it is), and that is not to recreate the wheel. If somebody else has taken the time to put their words down and try to help me then I will do everything in my power to follow their lead. Why start all over again and waste time when we have so little of it.
Well the reason I did the research was to find the optimum way of exercising and consensus was that you should workout 30 to 60 minutes a day, 5 days a week in order to maintain your weight and energy. I have tried to follow the advice but I found that I always seemed to take Friday as one of my forget about it “missed” days. There was no hard evidence why it always seemed to be Friday as the day to not exercise, it just kinda worked out that way. Dose Friday have some special purpose to me? I don’t really think so, but I always leave exercise off my “to do” list on Friday. No matter how you look at it Friday was a great end to another long week, or if you’re a glass half full person, the start of the wonderful possibilities of another weekend, but for me that was the day I never did a workout.
When I start to think about the things that are floating around in my head I was wondering if others felt the same way. First, did they have days they purposefully didn’t do a workout and if so, what was the day they missed. So now I’m interested enough to find out how you react to this.
- 1. Do you have a workout routine or just when you feel like it? (For those that don’t exercise at all, you need to read my other posts about the benefits of exercise and then come back here in abo0ut 2 months to answer.)
- 2. With your routine, do you miss a day or more in a week?
- 3. If you answered yes to #3 is the day always the same or is it by design to be different?
- 4. If it’s the same day, is Friday your missed day?
Hey, you don’t have to look at me with that weird face, cause I get it all the time at home. This is just one of those things that really isn’t important, but I’m curious enough to ask your feelings.

Exercise and Your Life
This past week I had a motivation problem with getting myself psyched up for exercise since I just seemed to be too busy to get on my treadmill. There was an issue at work that I needed to stay a little longer than I anticipated. Then the car had problems where I spent the entire day at the dealership (being promised that it would only take a few more minutes). My daughter needed to be shuttled to the collage campus as well as to the store to buy more stuff. I was trying to get the lawn mowed around the rain drops and my sister called to ask if I could come with her to a local town meeting. 
All of these things were just excuses I thought and I was going to beat myself up over them since I wasn’t getting in the half hour of rigorous exercise that I had originally scheduled. Then I started to rationalize that maybe I was getting in some exercise and I didn’t even pay any attention to it because it wasn’t done on a treadmill. Well I did cut the lawn on Thursday and it took over an hour of my time. On Wednesday, I walked around the dealership lot 3 times which used up a couple of hours and was about a mile and a half. Sunday was the college campus day and I must have walked at least three or four hours that day. I know since my legs started to tighten up.
The reason I mention all of these things is that some days or weeks don’t just workout (no pun intended) for you when it comes to structured exercise. Walking is a good way to get your blood moving and can be listed as exercise for the day. Having sweat pour off your face is not the only way to get your exercise fix. Don’t be so hard on your self as I’ll take the John Lennon quote “life is what happens while your busy making other plans”. Things just happen and for those that have exercise routines, you just need to go with the flow sometimes.
