Easy Exercise for Busy People
Simple yet effective ways to exercise.
As you reduce your level of protein and carbs there is likely not enough there to repair and replenish tissues if you work out too intensely.
You'll be left feeling worn out and sapped of energy!
But still, exercise is an important part of this program, and it can assist with your weight loss efforts. Just remember not to overdo it physically while on the diet as the effects can be counter-productive. If you run all the time for example, think about switching some of your runs for a brisk 30 minute walk instead.

Moving the body creates the conditions for the body to breathe, circulate and sweat, and this benefits the detoxification and weight loss process.
When you work out, you’re naturally working with your detox channels—deep breathing helps expel toxins through the lungs, you sweat out toxins through your skin, you’re stimulating the colon, and you’re activating toxin release through your lymphatic system.
Your lymphatic system doesn’t have a pump the way your circulatory system does, so it’s relying on you to get up and get active each day to keep your lymphatic juices flowing.
It's important to know however, that a program like this requires energy.
“Part of this journey is introspection, so listen to your body. On some days it may be better to do some gentle yoga, on other days cardio in the form or walking or cycling may be more your speed.”
