Although we all know that exercise is important for health, many of us find it difficult to stick to a regular daily plan. We can help you to overcome this problem and to find the right fitness program for yourself!
When you ask most people what would they like to do in order to feel better, often in response you hear “exercise regularly.” But many people find it very difficult to stick to a regular daily plan.
Maybe you’re making a mistake by choosing a form of exercise on the basis of:
- a) what your friend recommended to you,
- b) what change in your body you want to see, or
- c) the most popular form of exercise.
Consideration of these factors can be very useful, but in the end, there is a greater likelihood that you will stick to an exercise plan that suits your nature, but also your schedule.
What you need to know about yourself?
Ask yourself these questions, and when finished, think about what kind of exercise might suit you:
- Are you a morning person or a night kind of person?
- Would you like to spend more time in nature?
- Would you like to spend more time alone, with friends or to have more time to meet new
people?
- Whether you motivate the competition?
- Do you enjoy in loud music?
- Do you do a better job with some semblance of responsibility, or not?
- Would you like to exercise makes challenges to you?
- Do you love sports and games?
- Would you like more free time for meditation, watching TV or reading the newspaper?
- Do you plan your time well?
- Are you sensitive to weather conditions?
These answers will make you start thinking about exercise.
Here are a few suggestions
If you are a morning person who yearns for solitude, and time spent with your thoughts, but has a little control over your schedule, and hates to have a sense of responsibility towards anyone, you will perhaps enjoy a walk through the park every morning while you go to work. You may think about morning shower with cold water or stretching of the body as a form of exercise. If you are a night person who likes music and meeting new people and also love the responsibility, you might want to go to dance classes after work. Also, you may consider any kind of team sports that includes socializing and fun, like badminton or beach volleyball.
It is important to identify the problem. The best way to achieve this is to find out all aspects of your nature. Then, your schedule will become easier, you will find a way to keep your exercise plan, and, what is most important, the exercise will become something to look forward.
