Tips on how to start your own exercise Regimen

Tips

 * Go early to bed, and have plenty of rest on days you exercise. Muscles grow and repair themselves during the -deep- sleep.
 * Don't worry if you're not seeing quick results. It normally takes about 8 weeks for results to really kick in visually. Remember, you can't do it all in one sitting. Regular effort, with enthusiasm, is the key!
 * Believe in yourself.Never give up!
 * If you're not used to exercising, it will be hard for the first week or so, to keep yourself from using an elevator. Keep walking and, soon you'll find that you can easily climb those flights of stairs without getting out of breath. Plus, in train stations and the subway, walking has the added benefit --you avoid the crowds-- as no-one takes the stairs!
 * Play up-beat music to keep the pace and motivate yourself.
 * Your health is your most valuable asset. Politely refuse offers to drive you short distances with a car when you could walk instead.
 * Don't have enough time for a good workout? Take a walk during your lunch break, do crunches and jumping jacks while watching TV, or pace while talking on the phone... In other words, take every opportunity to exercise.
 * Burn more calories playing than what you get from foods. Counting may help at first, but with regular exercises and 5-6 scheduled meals you will easily stay on track. Regular and moderate meals will keep the "fire" burning!
 * Try NOT to exercise in the evening. If you exercise before going to bed, your metabolism is increased, endorphins are released and it will make it much more difficult to fall asleep naturally. If the only time you can exercise is in the evening, try to do it as early as possible before going to bed to allow your body to rest.
 * Consider alternative forms of exercise. Biking, indoor climbing, Yoga, Thai-chi, martial arts, etc., will all challenge your muscles in different ways, and provide some fun and variety.
 * Every day, make note of all the benefits you can perceive: increased energy, pride and so forth. Make it as long as you can and keep looking for new items.
 * You don't necessarily have to pay a trainer to work out with you every week. Gym membership can be helpful because a monetary commitment is likely to motivate you to stick with the regular program. If your gym has group fitness classes, they can help you mix things up a bit.
 * Get yourself active and move around.
 * Look in to Paleo. It cuts out processed carbs/food (cancer causing) and what you eat is 70-80% of your health. Bloating will be gone and you will feel more comfortable in your clothes. When you feel better, you are more likely to exercise to keep the cycle going.
 * Don't workout everyday. Set two days during the week when you'll stretch or walk, but won't do anything else for that day. Your body needs time to rebuild that muscle stronger and take a break. Especially the High Intensity Intermittent Training (HIIT) should only be done for twenty minutes twice a week, with days off, and avoid high fructose drinks for a couple of hours afterwards for best effect.
 * You should take care of your life- after all, its the only one you will get so look after yourself and eat right so you can make the most of life.
