Creating a New You

If you want to start a fitness plan, then you came to the right place.

Most people have a hard time starting a fitness plan. I would have to admit that I started and quit several fitness plans over the years. I usually jump in, full of energy and determination. Then I quit because I didn’t see results, it was too hard, or I couldn’t find the time to complete the plan’s requirements.

It was several years before I decided to learn how to do a fitness program properly.

Vitamins and Your Health

I didn’t realize that my high levels of fatigue and muscle pain are the result of a vitamin or calcium deficiency. Everyone should obtain a clean bill of health, and start a vitamin program.

Make Fitness a Part of Life

My main problem was my attitude toward fitness. I would go to a gym and sign up for a program. This turned fitness into an ‘interruption’ to my day, not a part of my life.

In the beginning, your fitness plan should not be overly aggressive. One of the biggest problems most people encounter when starting a fitness program is rapidly depleted motivation after only a few weeks due to an overly ambitious fitness plan.

I also thought I needed to be at the gym daily to see any results. I should have learned a bit about fitness before starting. The most important thing to remember is to save your energy. Do not waste your time doing localized exercises that work one small set of muscles. This type of exercise offers very little fat reduction or fitness improvement benefits.

Eat

I know this sounds backward, but the less a person eats, the harder it is to loose weight. That is because the body’s metabolism slows down.

Tomorrow I’ll tell you what worked for me, and how I made fitness a part of my lifestyle.
