One of the reasons I workout is because I want to be physically prepared if the fecal matter ever hits the proverbial spinning blades. If I have to bugout on foot and pack-carry my kid for miles and miles or chop wood for my woodstove or grow my own food, then I want to be in the best physical condition possible. Running from zombies is a lot easier if you're already a runner. The slow ones turn into zombie food, you know?
But at the same time, a nice set of flat abs, shapely legs and a tight ass are also a goal for me.
So I've been wrestling with the question: which types of exercises should I focus on? Those that will help me develop my functional muscles, or those that will best sculpt my body?
I am thinking I'll try to have a mix of the two. So my workouts will consist of:
Cardio (which we all know is the #1 rule from Zombieland): Probably mostly running, maybe some swimming (not useful against zombies, but fun for me)
Weight training: It's the absolute best way to sculpt a body
Martial arts practice: Practical and fun
Bodyweight exercises (pushups, squats, etc): Helps develop functional muscles
Though at this point, it's probably moot. After a few glasses of wine last night, I'm in no shape to hit the treadmill today.
