Are you having trouble getting started????

We know how hard it can be to start an exercise program. 

There are many ways to get started, the thought that "gee if I pay $500 for a gym membership I will HAVE to go" - we all know that this doesn't always work, then there is the "if  lay my exercise clothes out BEFORE i go to bed at night I will definitely get up early" - yeah right!

One of the easiest ways to ensure that you DO go and complete your exercise routine is the simplest one - schedule it in.  I can hear you say, "but I don't have a diary", this may be true but I am guessing that you probably do have a phone that you can place appointments in, an email program that has a diary component or a calendar hanging in the kitchen - some of you may have all of these.

Once you begin to treat your exercise as an appointment, you will form a habit and then you will no longer be sitting there saying "tomorrow I will start my program" because you will have already started!

Have a great day
