Two 30 minute standing desk sessions or walks each week day.  I have been keeping up with this regularly and it has become an automatic part of each workday.   

Wednesday 2/21/2018 - 1 hour Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Grind match

About every 6 months, the BJJ gym that I train and coach at holds a 1 hour grind match.  This is a tough event with not all participants making it all the way thru.  You and your partner grapple for 60 minutes straight in order to push your strength and cardio.  This time I actually got around to recording my match.  It is edited down to a condensed version as there were large portions that we went out of the view of the camera.  I was completely exhausted afterwards and ended up skipping my usual Thursday ab/core work.  You can watch it here:
