Back to fitness

So, how to break it down?
Yesterday I did pushups and lunges. Arms and legs.
Arms, legs, core?

Mark Lauren broke fitness down into eight categories: muscular strength, power, muscular endurance, cardiovascular endurance, speed, coordination, balance, and flexibility. I could say that I'm going to focus on one of these areas. But I'm not sure how to focus on power versus strength. I'm not so interested in building coordination or balance. I guess right now the ones I'm concerned about are muscular strength, cardiovascular endurance, and flexibility. But hey, since I haven't worked on flexibility in a while, that's something I can at least do this week. And next week. Alternate between strength and flexibility through the week, and then run on the weekends.

Okay, so today is Wednesday, and I'm going to do flexibility, then Thursday strength, then Friday flexibility again. Then run Saturday and Sunday.

Then next week I'll do strength Monday, Wednesday and Friday; and do flexibility Tuesday and Thursday. And run on the weekends.

So this Thursday I can do pushups and squats. And something else. Three exercises. But what about today? So I guess I'm doing yoga. But what? Let's find a YouTube Video...

Update: This is what I ended up doing: Full Body Stretch Yoga - 30 Minute Flexibility & Deep Stretch Workout from YOGATX.
