Ah yes, another year under our belts and you all know what that means…its time to start thinking about setting new “Exercise Goals”. For most of us this is a recurring theme, each year passes with new intentions to workout regularly.

A valiant effort is put in but results are at a minimum and in the end most people will give up!

This year try something different! Create a plan that’s geared to small successes, set goals that are realistic and therefore more achievable! Remember that old saying…”Rome wasn’t built in a day” well nothing could be more true when it comes to weight loss.

After all, the gained weight took time to accumulate so its going to take time to come off!  So with that in mind create a plan that works for you and your body.

Here are some suggestions…

• Start out by exercising at home, push-up and sit-up cost you nothing but time, dedicate 20-30 minutes each day.
• Come up with food reduction plan that works for you, cut back on empty calories, Ex…chips & soda your removing fat and sugar from your system.
• Connect with a friend and exercise together because there’s strength in numbers
• Chart your weight loss, small successes are a great motivator
• Over time pick up the workout intensity and time allotted

What ever you do start slowly but develop a consistent plan, one that’s tailored to you!  One last thing…Keep it simple, incorporate a slow but steady approach and you can succeed this time around!
