Do you need to get fit, yet find yourself procrastinating. Have you joined a gym, only to waste your membership. Or do you exercise for a few days and not continue. I think we can all relate to this. I know myself I have made all of these errors and more. Here is a few quick tips that I hope will help you change your bad habits and get fit.
1. Make a conscious decision that you are serious about doing exercise, it all starts in the mind and you need to change your old thinking. When I did this, I started exercising with a friend. I would never let my friend down by not turning up. That way you keep each other accountable.
2. If you have to exercise alone, listen to music. It can motivate and distract you.
3. Exercise at least 3 times a week for 45m to 1hr. But try to do more. Mix it up, cardio, weights, stretching, bike, yoga, pilates, swim, run, even go for a brisk walk. When you have variety, it will become fun.
4. Try to exercise close to home or alternatively exercise near work, it will suit your lifestyle and make life easier.

6. Join a Bootcamp. Many places have challenges and they are fantastic to get you motivated and give you a kick start.
7. Stick with it. If life becomes busy or you get sick, don't give up because these things do happen. No one can do it for you. This is for you, so that you can be happy and enjoy life. NEVER, EVER give up.
