And, knowing that I always feel good after exercising, I have taken to exercising sporadically throughout the day (I have a rowing machine about 10 feet from my desk).
So far, it seems to be working.
I used to row 30 minutes a day all at one time (covering about 5-6,000 meters). Lately, I row 15 minutes here, 10 there, 2,500 meters here and 1,000 there. It adds up to more than 10-12,000 meters a day so far.
I seem to feel better throughout the day, but this is something new...so I will have to see how it works out over time.
As an aside, I was a hyperkinetic kid and, at times, had trouble focusing and, at other times, focused too much. School performance was sporadic until I started running everyday (in grad school). Straight A's after I started running.
Bkmrk.
I love my rowing machine but I never considered rowing for small time periods throughout the day.
Thanks for the suggestion!
