Introduction
When
choosing an exercise routine, you'll want to focus on three things: your
personality, needs, and fitness level. Rather than trying to adjust your life
around exercise, adjust your exercise routine to fit into your life. Doing so
will ensure that you focus on your goals and stick to the plan.
Choosing Exercise to Fit Your Personality
Choosing Exercise to Fit Your Personality
This is
the main factor to consider before beginning an exercise routine. If you choose
an activity you do not enjoy, how long do you think you'll stick with it?
Today, there are so many options to choose from that it's easy to find
activities you enjoy. Many gym memberships include classes such as spinning,
yoga, Pilates, kickboxing, aqua aerobics, and much more. If you are a person
who is easily bored, choose a few activities you can alternate. Mixing it up
will keep it fun and exciting. Explore your options. There are plenty of
materials you can find to give you a greater insight about what is out there,
both in your area and online. It will only take a small amount of time to
research the activities that you think you might enjoy more, but the benefit
will be a resulting regime that suits your personality and creates ownership –
meaning your chances for success with this program are greatly increased.
Choosing an Exercise Routine to Fit Your Needs
Do you prefer to exercise at home? Purchasing a gym membership is pointless if you know you won't use it regularly. There are plenty of activities you can do in your home or neighborhood without spending the extra money. Plan a walking route through your neighborhood, and invite a friend to join you. In your home, you can do workout videos, walk on a treadmill, or walk up and down stairs.
Time constraints are the biggest reason most people cannot stick with a workout routine. Busy lives get in the way, and exercise moves to the bottom of your priority list. If you can't block out 30 minutes at a time to exercise, break it up into three 10 minute intervals. There isn't a rule that says you must do 30 continuous minutes of physical activity to reap the health benefits. Any activity is better than no activity. If breaking it into smaller sections works for you, you will be more likely to stick to your exercise routine.

Don’t
forget to take advantage of your online resources. Online fitness programs have
been shown in studies to provide sustainable weight loss, and are able to
provide programs catered specifically to your needs, likes, equipment,
availability etc – all at much less than a single session with a face to face
personal trainer. At Fitness Fahey’s we even provide programs that include home
workouts, no equipment workouts, travelling and hotel programs and endless
amounts of exercises with minimal and cheap equipment you can take with you
anywhere.
Selecting an Exercise Routine that Correlates with Your Fitness Level
If you decide you want to run five miles, and you've never run before, what do you think will happen? First, you won't be able to finish. Second, you'll probably decide that running is horrible and you'll never want to do it again. If you're a beginner who wants to start running, you need to begin slowly. Start with one mile and only run part of it. The classic walk/run routine is a perfect starter. Try to run for 30 seconds and walk for one minute, gradually increasing your running times and reducing your walking times. Eventually, you'll be running the entire mile and then you can add on distance as you feel more comfortable.
Choosing the correct exercise routine to fit your lifestyle is the most important step to success. Taking a few things into consideration can help you incorporate exercise routine into your life without making a lot of unnecessary sacrifices. This is where a personal trainer, fitness buddy or knowledgeable gym assistant can help you out. By simply providing them with your restrictions and likes you should be able to jointly develop a program that will suit your goals, contain activities that you can enjoy, and be targeted to your fitness level and schedule.
