workout early, or skip a day. It just might be the thing you need to get you excited
about your next workout.
Possibly the most important thing is to keep progressing your exercise program
slowly. Big increases in time or intensity can set you up for injury, and cause you
to drop out. Unless you are a world-class athlete, there is no reason to workout at
world-class levels. Remember to give yourself some days off and get proper rest.
Finally, try to anticipate lapses. If you are traveling, or your schedule is becoming
busier, and you are fearful you may get off track, try planning ahead. For example,
book a hotel that has a workout facility or change up your workout so that you
keep your interest high and your boredom low. The bottom line is you must be
creative and innovative to keep up your fi tness program. With some imagination
and planning, it is easy to do.
Exercise is one of life’s joys. It energizes you, helps you look and feel better and
puts you on the road to better health. Your home fi tness equipment and gym is
worth its weight in gold. Congratulations on making the choice to get started!
