- Examine your fitness level
It is always sensible to seek your doctor’s advice before you decide to start any type of exercise program. If nothing is wrong you will at least have your pulse and blood pressure examined and you will acquire your doctor’s consent for the sort of program you have in mind.
- Create an exercise plan
Do not simply jump out of bed in the morning and jog your butt off. Rather than that sit down and try to create a realistic plan. You can use a diary to note the details. It is important to adopt a gradual approach, for example two sessions in week 1, three sessions in week 2 and so on. Finally, plan to evaluate your progress after let’s say one month.
- Think of an exercise buddy
Exercising all by yourself requires great self-discipline. However, you can make it easier for yourself by if you find a friend or neighbor who will exercise with you. Alternatively, or additionally if you like, join an exercise class that is suitable for you. Remember, do not allow yourself to be involved in something that is too strenuous.
