Make a Plan Now!

As the year is coming to an end, so are the holidays. Four holidays in just three months. Make a plan now to start or continue with your health and fitness goals. Now is the time! If you wait, it's too late.

What are you doing now? What could you do a little more of? And what are you going to do when the holidays are upon us?

If you currently do not have an exercise program, start with something simple that you enjoy. Biking, hiking, brisk walking, dancing, etc.. There are so many things to do. All it is, is just doing it. Something is definitely a lot better then nothing. Find what motivates you, music, competition, body image, etc.. and go for it. You need to decide now how many times a week, for how long, and at what intensity. The American College of Sports Medicine recommends at least 30 minutes of moderate-intense exercise on most days of the week. Of course, something is better than nothing at all. MOVE YOUR BODY NOW!

If you're a consistent exerciser you may want to review your workout program and make adjustments now so you don't get bored throughout the holiday season. Add more variety, intensity, or more dynamic movements. This will help keep your interest, while still challenging your body.

So, now that you have set your goals, how are you going to maintain this throughout the holiday season? Hummm, ideas? Well, what already now keeps you from sticking to an exercise program and being consistent? Family, friends, procrastination, time, work, school, etc...
