Where are you starting from?
,
Are you currently following an exercise program? If so, what exactly are you doing? Hopefully it involves some sort of strength training and a little bit of high intensity cardio. To me those are 2 of the best things you can do as far as exercising goes. I know, there's also yoga, Pilates, spinning, etc. But like I said, I feel strength training and high intensity cardio give you the most bang for your healthful, body-changing buck.
But maybe you're not doing anything in terms of exercising right now. And it's been a long time since you have. But you're thinking of getting back into it and exercising again. You just don't know where to start. Let's take a look at that and see how you can get started.
First off, what do you enjoy doing? Walking? Cycling? Weight training? At-home Yoga? Whatever it is, pick that activity and start with 10 to 15 minutes. That's it. Even if you want to do more...DON'T! We'll be increasing your time in the next few days/weeks. For now, just get started with a 10-15 minute session of your activity of choice.
You'll do that activity 3 times a week for about 10-15 minutes.
On the days in between, I want you to start thinking about a goal you want to achieve. Maybe it's to lose 10 pounds by a certain date. Maybe it's to go down a size in the jeans you wear by a certain date. Maybe it's to be able to increase your cardio by 10 minutes by a certain date. Whatever it is, make it something tangible that you'll be able to know that you've achieved. Feeling better, looking better, etc. are great goals, but very vague and you won't really know if you've achieved them. Every day is different, right?
Also, make sure you put a deadline on your goal. I can't stress how much more powerful a goal is with a deadline. It can honestly be the difference between achieving the goal and not achieving it. It's also a very helpful to tell a few people. You don't have to announce it to the whole world on Facebook (although you could). But maybe tell a few close friends. Again, a very powerful goal setting tip as this will keep you on track more because you don't want to make yourself look bad by not following through.
Ok...so now you've been exercising for a week or two and you have one or two goals written down. You're feeling good and you're motivated to up the exercising. Now's a great time, if you haven't been doing any strength training, to add in some bodyweight moves. Push ups, squats, lunges, etc. I have a great bodyweight workout program that you can use (I've attached it to this email). So now you've got your cardio that you're doing 2-3 days a week and you'll be adding the bodyweight program in 2-3 days a week.
Thats it for now. You've gotten started and you're following a set routine that will absolutely get you results. From here on out, you'll start to branch out and hopefully get into more "advanced" workouts. You'll know when you're ready for that. But right now, get started with a plan like I've outlined in this email.
One thing I've left out here is EATING! We all know how crucial your eating plan is when it comes to weight loss and more importantly...FAT LOSS.
Well, as luck would have it...I'll be sending out the "Nutrition" version of this email on Friday. So be sure to be on the lookout for that.
I am running a 30 Day 'New Year / New You' Weight Loss Challenge that will cover all of this in much greater detail. The challenge starts January 2nd, but I'm opening up the registration on next Friday (Black Friday) and there's going to be a great bonus if you sign up that day. You can reserve a spot by emailing me back and telling me you want in. I'm only taking on 30 people for that Challenge.
Ok, get started on your exercise plan, write down your goals, and look for the nutrition email on Friday!
