Getting Started

Yes, how do you start on an exercise program without feeling overwhelmed with the ‘what to’ and ‘how to’?

Let’s assume you want to lose weight. So here’s what you can do.

Begin an aerobic program.
Exercise at a pace that makes you work at a somewhat hard rate but not until you are panting, producing painful lactic acid and 3 minutes away from a heart attack.

Do the following 3 to 4 times a week at an aerobic rate:
1. Start with brisk walking or jogging (not running, yet) ideally on a treadmill where you can monitor your heart rate, your pace and the difficulty factor
2. For 20 to 25 minutes
3. You could near the end of the session exercise slightly harder and push your heart rate into the anaerobic range, but jus for a minute or so.
4. Cool down and end the session with light stretches.

Go Aerobic, and you’ll end up looking real good and feeling real great in a real short time.

NOTE:
Err... please do not give yourself the excuse to eat any more than what you normally eat, just because you exercised.
