By: Hank Lunton
All of us have some time or the other have thought about
starting an exercise program to get into shape. Many of us
actually spend more time thinking about the program than
getting down to actually starting it.
It is important to
start the exercise program for retaining good health. It is
also important not to get bogged down by your age because
starting a exercise program is not as difficult or scary as
you may think.

Before beginning any new exercise program, it is advisable
to speak with your doctor who will be able to guide you on
the best approach to take and which planned exercise program
would be safe for you. For you would not want to work on
making your body in better shape by harming something
equally important.

You should try to include the physical activities that you
enjoy in your exercise program. But do not try to include
those activities that you hate, in your exercise schedule.
For example if you do not like running don't even bother
trying to add it into your new exercise program. This way
you are picking on one more reason which might bring you
failure in this new exercise program. The important thing is
to spot and include the activities that you enjoy doing so
that the exercise routine doesn't seem like so much of a
chore but some thing you enjoy and look forward to it.

If you like to bike or swim, then start by doing them three
times a week to start with. This shouldn't be difficult,
especially if it's an activity you know you like. If its
winter time and you know you don't want to bike in the
snow, look into gym rates. They almost always have
stationary bikes, and you could work out on that until
spring comes around. All things in moderation; so start
slowly. Try 20 minutes on an easy trail. That doesn't sound
like much, but if you've been sedentary for a while you
could hurt yourself riding any longer.

Be sure to always challenge yourself when exercising. If you
have been biking the same trail for a few weeks and you find
it quite easy, try something with some steeper grades, or a
longer trail. If you're swimming, add some more laps, or try
a new stroke. Timing yourself is another great way to make
sure you're getting a good workout.

You should slowly add more activities to your exercising
repertoire. This goes back to challenging yourself. If all
you do is bike, your legs will become strong, but what about
the rest of you? You may want to add weight training a few
days a week as well. In our 20s, we start to loose muscle
mass, so doing some sort of weights is very important.

Many people are leery of going to a gym, and using all those
confusing weight machines. As an alternative get yourself a
set of free weights and a book on simple weight training.
You can workout almost every muscle group without the use of
expensive machinery. Just be sure to follow all instructions
carefully as it can be easy to hurt yourself.

In order to motivate yourself, you may want to find a
workout buddy. If you know anyone who is also planning to
start a new exercise routine, see if you can coordinate your
schedules. Working out with a friend is often much more fun
than doing it on your own.

To sum up the important points to keep in mind while getting
into a good exercise routine is zeroing in on the physical
activities that you enjoy. Start off slowly. Be sure to
consult your doctor before starting a new exercise routine.
Exercise accompanied by good eating habits is very necessary
for our body to stay healthy
