I just turned 30, and here are 5 changes I am making to my exercise to make sure I live the longest, healthiest life possible. Number 1, incorporating both low-intensity and high-intensity cardio. The heart is the most important muscle that also needs to be trained. Number 2, I'm gonna stop skipping core workouts. As boring as they are, I'm incorporating 1 to 2 core exercises in my warmup before every workout I do. Number 3, adding in mobility exercises along with my core workouts. I will do 1 to 2 exercises, and this also helps prep my joints and muscles for the weight I'm about to lift. Number 4, focusing on balance and stability exercises, not just moving the most weight possible. I will do 1 to 2 unilateral exercises per workout. And number 5, not skipping my daily walks, because for every 1,000 steps you walk, it's correlated with a 15% decrease in risk of death.
