So [[Health is Vague]] and there's 1000 ways to skin the cat of fitness. [[Huberman's Foundational Fitness Routine]] is excellent, but not exactly what I've settled on for my "[[Ideal Exercise Regiment]]". I've begun doing the following, and thus far it's working out[^1] nicely. Workout every day for roughly ~45 minutes. Every other day switching between modalities, completing cycles that look like this: ![[Pasted image 20250323104135.png]] Lift → Zone 2 → Lift → Zone 2 → Lift → HIIT → Lift → Yoga → (repeat) Where: - **Lift** uses any prebuilt workout routine... of which I've noted many. - **Zone 2** uses any [[Zone 2#Training]] method - **HIIT** uses any [[HIIT#Training]] method - **Yoga** is basically whatever, I typically use beachbody fitness's yoga videos or search "mobility routine" on YouTube I'm not dogmatic about sticking with this exact structure. It's more that I'm adhering to the following few [[Principles I Like|principles]]: 1. Work out most days 2. Don't do the same type of workout on consecutive days. 3. Mix [[Facets of Fitness|cardio, mobility, and strength]] 4. [[Avoid the Yellow Zone - Train in Green or Red]] There's a trend toward calling this sort of balanced approach being a "hybrid athlete"... which essentially just means I lift weights, but I'm not a weightlifter. I run but I'm not a runner. I stretch, but I'm not a yogi. **** # More ## Source - Self - but distilled from many people who actually _do_ know what they're talking about. ## Related - [^1]: pun intended
