Working out\u2026..what\u2019s that all about?<\/h2>\n

Broadly speaking, it\u2019s exercising; doing something with your body that raises your heart rate and puts your body into motion by using your muscles to burn calories.<\/p>\n

Working out (using your muscles and burning calories) can come in all flavors:\u00a0 mowing your yard, pruning rose bushes or trees, playing with your children, walking your dog, swimming, biking, weight training, etc, etc.<\/p>\n

The big concept for continued fitness improvement and benefit is to keep doing it.\u00a0 Consistency is key!\u00a0 For that reason, give it parameters that will make it sustainable.<\/p>\n

Here we go\u2026<\/h2>\n

Before you get into anything hardcore, check with your doctor if you have any medical conditions which should hold you back or moderate what\/how you do stuff.\u00a0 When you\u2019re good to go, here are some parameters to consider:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Total fitness should focus on both aerobic and strength conditioning.<\/li>\n
  2. Of course, your end goal may have you focus one of these but they both should be considered.<\/li>\n
  3. Shoot to work out for at least 2 hours per week.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Make doing the workout convenient; it has to fit into your schedule.\u00a0 Personally, I like working out in the morning.\u00a0 Maybe it\u2019s more convenient for you in the evening.\u00a0 It doesn\u2019t matter when, as long as you can be consistent.<\/p>\n

    I\u2019ll go over these 3 parameters in more detail in the next newsletter.\u00a0 In the meantime, start thinking about your goal.\u00a0 Make it yours and make it fun!<\/p>\n
