- Start Over– Forget all of the awful memories you have of exercising. Forget the pain you may have felt and the shortness of breath that you probably experienced. Also, stop thinking about those high school days! None of these memories are going to motivate you or inspire you to workout. Think about what could be instead of what was!
- Prepare a Schedule– You are not the only person with a busy schedule that gives you now free time, but you need to be one of the select few people who MAKE time. If you can find just 20 minutes a day a day to dedicate to exercise, then you are starting off on the right foot. After that first week, add ten minutes to each of your workouts the following week.
- Take Small Steps– I promise you that any fitness goal you wish to achieve won’t happen overnight! You’ll have to work for it. So, take baby steps. Change one bad habit a day and work towards a better, healthier, lifestyle that way. You’ll have much more success!
- Try Something New– That kickboxing class that you have always wanted to take has spots open? Go for it! You won’t regret trying something new and exciting. Go for a bike ride, go horseback riding, run with your dog, just do something different. You won’t have any success if you get bored with your workout quickly.
- Get a Workout Buddy– Find someone who can be as equally dedicated as you! You WILL need this person to help you achieve your fitness goals. It’s no fun to workout alone, so you can even try to get the whole family involved.
