1. Pick a plan --
Just like in any other area of your life, you are by far more successful when you have a plan. Here are couple ideas: join a class, using a walking/running app with a plan or use a home based program like one from Beachbody.
The struggle for some many who join a gym for those starting out is the lack of knowledge on the exercises needed to achieve their goals. So if you join a gym, meet with a trainer to set up a program to help you accomplish your goals.
2. Never Alone --
The journey is going to get tough, tougher is you do it by yourself. Don't do it alone. Find a partner or group to join you in your journey. Support is the one three keys to success in reaching your health and fitness goals.
3. Use Visual Reminders --
Keep your goals in front of you. Right it on the mirror in lipstick. Make a vision board. Pull out those skinny jeans and keep them in visible sight. These visual reminders will serve as constant reminder to be consistent.
4. Set a Workout Alarm --
Seriously, set an alarm or reminder on your phone. Schedule your workouts in your calendar. These become set in stone (well, digital stone) times for you to get off your backside and get going.
5. Have Fun! --
If your workouts are not fun, you will not keep doing them. Find a workout plan or program that you will fall in love with. If you don't like doing it odds are increasing less likely that you will continue doing it. Have fun, have fun, have fun!!!
No matter what you do, START! You will never regret getting started on your journey of health and fitness. You will never regret improving your life. Just START!
