The ASCM's (American College of Sports Medicine) guidelines for exercise are as follows:

• Adults should get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week.
• Exercise recommendations can be met through 30-60 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise (five days per week) or 20-60 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise (three days per week).

ZONING is for those who seek wellness without worry. It's easy to learn!

The very foundation of ZONING goes to worry free simplicity of design. First we use simple timing - 5 minutes to warm up, 20 minutes of doing something, 5 minutes to cool down (5 - 20 - 5). Then it is understanding your effort. Is it easy (blue), moderate (yellow) or hard (red). Variety is the final element. Simply change your effort every time the music or instruction changes. Indeed, our optional Heart Rate Monitor actually blinks blue, yellow or red depending on your level of effort. To begin just assess yourself (we guide you) then start. Easy as blue, yellow, red.

Zoning Activities

What is a Zoning activity? Really, it's any activity that gets you up and gets you moving so you notice the effort. With our Blink Heart Rate Monitor just set your zones (we guide you) and then keep it in the yellow.

Every Day Activities

Walking, swimming, running, skating, biking, playing, hiking, dancing, mowing the lawn, raking the leaves, taking the stairs, shoveling snow from the sidewalk, walking to Starbucks, walking when you play golf.

Make up your own. We keep saying Zoning is fun, easy and set to your own music. Think about it. Go for a walk. Bring your iPod. Walk to easy music. After five minutes change the music to something more up beat and walk faster. Do that for six songs then slow down.

Is there a small hill in your neighborhood? Walk to it, then up it. Repeat up and down for 20 minutes.

So, join me and  ZONING Fitness on this 8 week Blink Weight Loss Challenge!  Register at 365fitt.
