Not preaching, but this has made a huge difference for me.
Overall I feel better. Much better, and after a large meal there is no crash and tiredness.
Ok, now, I realize that this is goin to sound like some hippie BS, but I have also switched to the Vibram five Finger Shoes. Not just for working out but for everything.
I have a medical issue with the arch in my right foot, and these shoes help to correct the issue. They also allow for me to feel my car, especially when heel-toe shifting.

I also did finally join a gym. Just cardio and squats so far. I am currently doing 90 minutes of cardio 3-4 times a week, so let's see how that works and what I can build that up.
I read an article about that, explaining that the less cushion under your foot is better that way the foot can give you better support and balance! Right now I have a very small cushion tennis for my HIIT... I'm thinking on use them on legs days as well...
