So, some not so quick backstory:
28 years old
Diagnosed as diabetic in March - Not currently on medication, doc likes my current progress.
Gone from 385 in March to 339 as of 5/28.
I have an unsteady work schedule, and a membership at my local 24hr gym. I chose a mixed class of Druid/Warrior because of my (albeit distant) Irish heritage, the need/want of focus and mindfulness. The warrior bit is a focus in strength and cardio (mainly for weight loss). I am reading Steve's book and have really learned a lot about setting goals and character/world building.
The Problem: I have no idea what I'm doing in the gym. Due to my wife and I's conflicting work schedules - and difference in regimen - I have to go at it alone. I'm currently doing random exercises for an hour or two a day/night and that has attributed to my weight loss, along with cutting out everything I love about food out of my diet. I do try to be consistent with running on the elliptical for 30 to 60 minutes of my gym time.
What I'm looking for: 1. A weight training/cardio routine that I can squeeze into about an hour, that's actually doing me some good. 2. A meditative yoga series/video for beginners that I can squeeze into about 30 - 40 minutes about every other day.
As far as mindfulness goes, I'm learning to meditate using Headspace, I'm just trying to figure out the best time to do it... definitely not before bed like I thought, or right after I get up (I fall back asleep).
Thanks in advance for any and all ideas...
