Before beginning
How you begin your exercise
program depends on your physical
condition. If you have been inactive
for several years, or are severely
overweight, you must start slowly
and increase your time gradually, a
few minutes per week.
Initially you may be able to exercise
only for a few minutes in your target
zone. However, your aerobic fitness
will improve over the next six to eight
weeks. Don’t be discouraged if it
takes longer. It’s important to work
at your own pace. Ultimately, you’ll
be able to exercise continuously for
30 minutes. And the better your
aerobic fitness, the harder you will
have to work to stay in your target
zone. But remember these
essentials:
>Contact your physician before
starting a workout or training
program. Have your doctor review
your training and diet programs to
advise you of a workout routine you
should adopt.
>Begin your training program slowly
with realistic goals that have been
set by you and your doctor.
>Supplement your program with
some type of aerobic exercise such
as walking, jogging, swimming,
dancing and/or bicycling.
Monitor your pulse frequently. If you
do not have an electronic heart rate
monitor, have your physician show
you the proper way to manually check
your pulse by using your wrist or
neck. Establish your target heart
rate based on your age and
condition.
>Drink plenty of fluids during the
course of your routine. You must
replace the water content lost from
excessive exercising to avoid
dehydration. Avoid drinking large
amounts of cold liquids. Fluids should
be at room temperature when
consumed.
