Find Your Answers...To Exercise

This post is for my brother... we had a lovely dinner last night and I was doing what I love to do, asking questions to my sister-in-law to help her get the answers on where in her busy life she could find time to add strength training into her workouts.

As they were leaving she said "now do your brother".

Finding time to coach and ask my brother questions can be difficult. I decided to try to help him find answers by posting the questions. Perhaps this could help YOU find answers to making time for exercise in your day, as well.

Here are some questions pertaining to adding exercise to your day, what are your answers...

1. What is it you want to change?
2. What are you doing currently?
3. What is your schedule like?
4. How much time would you like to devote to exercise during your week? Realistically!
5. What days would you schedule those workouts?
6. What would you do during this time you allotted?
7. What day will you start with this new plan?
   

Make the goal specific, pick the time, the day, the exercise...write it on your calendar or put it on your schedule. Most importantly don't go from doing no exercise at all to making a goal of exercising 5 or 6 days a week. This is not a realistic goal, you will not fulfill your promise.

If you are doing nothing start with a 2 or 3 day a week goal. If you do 2 or 3 days add one more a few weeks and another after a couple more weeks. Make the habit first, start small and work to getting in more time.

I am very happy to help anyone by asking the right questions. If these questions are not giving you the answers you need give me a call.
