EXERCISE TIPS

Tips to exercise regularly

Set a simple target

The beginning is always tough. And if you start with a simple target, you will be able to achieve it and then you will also feel motivated. So, if you are going to start walking, then start with a target of 20 minutes of walking initially and then increase it gradually to 40 minutes. Be realistic while setting your goal.

Focus on quality

There are a lot of people who spend a lot of time in the gym without really adding much to their fitness regimen. Quality needs to be a vital part of your exercise regimen. If you are hitting a gym, make sure that you do it under the guidance of professional trainers.

Concentrate on simple exercises

Don't get influenced by the six pack and eight pack abs of film stars. Listen to your own body and its requirements. Know how much to push yourself. The fundamentals are basic: You need to set a target, focus on quality, and challenge yourself. Focus on simple exercises and then work your way up to more complicated routines as you get more comfortable and gain confidence while pushing yourself.

Make it a habit

Be consistent, that's the mantra for maintaining a regular exercise regimen. There are no short cuts to your fitness goals. You have to exercise regularly if you want the desired results. On most occasions, people start exercising on an enthusiastic note and then they falter as the initial enthusiasm wears off. So, stick to your schedule.
