00:01 The following program is designed
00:03 to demonstrate simple workouts 00:04 that you can use to improve your health. 00:05 Be sure to consult your physician 00:07 before beginning any exercise program. 00:11 Welcome to "Body and Spirit." 00:12 I'm Jeanie McDonald Weaver, 00:14 and we are going to get fit today. 00:17 It's a quick fit program to get control of your waistline. 00:43 Welcome to "Body and Spirit." 00:44 I have Tim with me today and Teresa 00:48 and we are going to do a quick fit program. 00:53 The reason why we're doing this 00:54 is because some times you can't get outside 00:57 and you are thinking I can't do anything. 01:00 But many people are having diabetes these days. 01:03 Many people have what's called insulin insensitivity, 01:07 insulin resistance. 01:08 That's part of the metabolic syndrome, 01:11 bigger belly, high, low HDL. 01:17 This all goes with insulin resistance. 01:20 And one of the things that attacks it, why? 01:24 The number one thing that attacks is exercise 01:28 but you need to exercise to get your breathing up. 01:31 Sometimes you just thing 01:33 I don't have an hour to go for, for my walk. 01:35 Then do ten minutes and that's we're gonna do today. 01:38 So Teresa and Tim are already doing their warm up 01:42 by starting with their heels engaging the belly button. 01:46 Right Teresa? Yes. 01:47 She is saying yes. 01:49 Tim is always in to say is, he knows the drill. 01:54 Okay so the heels are coming up after we've done that 01:57 and we've tossed our ball or rolled up socks. 02:00 We don't have to have any big, 02:02 you know, special ball or anything. 02:05 Just squeeze those hands 02:06 and start pulling that elbow behind you. 02:08 Now, we're engaging the upper body. 02:11 So, what we're going to is we're going to introduce 02:13 into a about a ten minute time period 02:18 how to do intervals and intensity in your workout. 02:23 You can do this when you go for you walk, 02:25 today or any other time or when you take your bike ride 02:28 or you take your swim or anything that you do 02:31 you are gonna see how to do it. 02:33 We're gonna do little ten second maybe intervals 02:37 and then you recover, but you don't just start. 02:40 Teresa you can't sit down. Okay. 02:43 Alright, you have to stay stand with me. 02:44 Now even though I said she couldn't sit down, 02:47 if you are saying out there, 02:48 oh I can't do this. They are standing up 02:50 and there are doing some fast. Not true. 02:53 You could sit down and move your legs in the chair 02:58 just like we're moving them here. Okay. 03:01 Now, we're gonna pull our knees forward 03:04 now we're gonna bring our tempo up just a bit 03:06 because we've been warming up, okay. 03:08 I'm gonna still be crossing the ball 03:11 and I'm watching my clock now 03:14 and I want to bring my knees up just little bit. 03:17 And I might counted up, I might touch this foot 03:21 at every time I touch this foot I'm gonna count. 03:23 So its one, two, three, so you count four, yes, five 03:28 just like that keep counting seven, eight, 03:32 And you are not bringing your knees very high. 03:34 But what's happen right here right?

Yes. 22:18 So you don't have to go super fast, 22:21 but don't throw your back out. 22:22 Sixteen, seventeen, we want to do 20. 22:27 Maybe we'll do 40. Okay. Bring it back, all right. 22:32 Bring that leg around, 22:34 bring that leg around little circle. 22:36 So, you're gonna try to just draw little circle right there, 22:39 and a circle right there, 22:41 and a little circle right there, just like that. 22:45 Just draw that circle keep that tummy tight. 22:49 So, what you did today was quick fit. 22:53 We did about a 10 minute. 22:56 You can make it 12, you can make it 6. 22:58 Okay, you can make it 8. 23:00 Little intervals and we had went really fast 23:03 for about 10 minutes at each one of those steps that we did. 23:08 That helped you get into a higher fitness category. 23:12 So, when you're out walking that's what you do. 23:15 You're walking, you're warming up. 23:17 So, you're pertaining you're walking 23:19 let's say that there is a hill. 23:22 Guy you know where the hill is or a little ditch. 23:25 So, you're walking, you warmed up, 23:28 there is my ditch. 23:30 Down and up, down and up, 23:31 down and up, that's you're interval. 23:34 Add intervals to your walk, do you quick fit. 23:39 If you're making the excuse to chose don't have time. 23:42 Listen anybody has 10 minutes, okay. 23:49 Be cheerful about, be cheerful about your pain. 23:55 Yes, you have to get up and you have to do something. 23:58 But our text today, Proverb 17:22, 24:01 a cheerful heart is a good medicine, 24:04 but a downcast spirit dries up the bones. Okay. 24:09 Think about that when you're gonna do quick fit. 24:12 And it will help you lift your spirits 24:15 and you'll walk a little faster even for 10 seconds. 24:18 So, we're thinking 10 minutes and then 10 second intervals. 24:22 And maybe in that 10 minutes 24:24 we do 3 intervals of quick moves. 24:29 Then the next week, we do that for a week. 24:32 The next week we do five intervals 24:36 in 10 minutes of quick. 24:38 We went up and down the hill then we come back, okay. 24:42 You got the interval, do you understand? Yes. Sure. 24:44 And why is this so important. 24:47 Teresa says now is this going to help me 24:50 to keep my weight under control? 24:52 That's what this program is about. 24:54 If you will understand how to use intervals, 24:57 integrate it into your aerobic work, 25:00 you can also integrate it into your weight training 25:03 which we were even doing here too. 25:05 That's an overall calorie burn, that's all those muscles 25:09 hidden in the refrigerator at the same time, right? 25:12 They're taking in that sugar. 25:15 There is nothing that will burn 25:17 lower your sugar more than exercising. 25:22 So after your meal you want to do maybe not a high intensity 25:27 quick fit but just a gentle 10 minute walk.
