Anyone have any good programs/links to make my health/fitness more efficient? I got into home cooking and 1.5hr workouts but I've found between work and transit, I've got no time for anything else.

Templates would be ideal. Thx guys

You could try to just do a few reps of body weight resistance training, when you get the chance. An nice example is the routine Dean Karnazes uses ( Yes Ultramarathon man). He will do sit ups, push ups, or pull ups when he can (Like when he has writers block). But he also has a 4 hours sleep schedule, on which he just about runs two marathons per day on, and in between does strength training.

You could also look at his dietary measures as well. He eats home cooked meals, but usually doesn't eat many carbs, and trys to avoid starches.

My routine is about to change anyway, i've been taking the time to try out a bunch of different programs. Planning to work my way up to 170 (At 5'7) and then cut through a bunch of interval work, I have been bouncing between 165 and 155 due to missing meals. I was working out 4 times a week, but may cut to 3 and then box on my 2 days off (I find lifting weights is not psychologically satisfying enough -- i like sparring, wrestling, etc).

Freezing leftovers is a great tip, health frozen meals are good too. But I eat too much to have leftovers mostly! I've been trying to cook (which is nice for impressing the girls) but I keep finding it locks me into my apartment (in a pretty dull neighborhood).

Chicken breast and fish can add up pretty quickly too budget-wise -- I know there are some good guides (UD2.0, Precision Nutrition, Power Eating) but I thought I would ask around before buying a $80-100 nutrition plan.
