If you’ve never hit the gym before, consider hiring a personal trainer to determine what fitness plan is best for you. A good trainer can help you identify your problem areas, figure out your goals and suggest a workout regimen that suits your needs. Having someone around to show you what to do can make going to the gym a little less intimidating. You will be on your way to a great start to a plan you can stick to.
Start a garden. Gardening and yard work are more demanding than you would think. There is a lot of weeding, digging, and squatting in the dirt. Gardening is only one thing that can be done at home to stay in shape.
If you continue to make excuses to avoid exercising, or you find that you are exercising infrequently, schedule in your exercise. Make your schedule include workouts on a certain number of days during each week, and keep the workout date with yourself regardless of what else comes up. Every day you miss where you were supposed to work out, fit an additional day into your schedule to make up for it.
When you are using cycling for an exercise, aim to maintain a pace of between 80 and 110 revolutions per minute. This pace allows you the ability of riding longer distances at greater speeds without fatiguing or straining your knees. If you count the times your leg on the right lifts up every ten seconds and times it by six you can set a pace. Remember, 80-100 rpm is optimal.
You must plan ahead if you want to see results. Take advantage of the advice found here, and use them to create your own plan to get fit and healthy. If you’re not sure where to start, don’t get discouraged. These tips can help you with it.
