Tips for finding and sticking to an effective exercise plan....
Write Down Specific Goals
Rather than tell yourself “I want to get back into shape” or “I
really need to exercise more,” write down goals that are more
specific. Seeing things like “I will go to the gym three times a
week” or “I will walk for 30 minutes, five times a week” on
paper will make you more likely to stick with your fitness plan.
Get a User-Friendly Tracking System
Invest in a quick and easy-to-use native health tracking
system to make it as easy as possible. A great example is S
Health, which acts as a personal coach, trainer and assistant.
Samsung smartphones like the Galaxy S7 feature the S Health
app, which tracks your different exercises like walking,
running, biking or shooting hoops with the kids. You also can
use the S Health as a pedometer, which gives you tangible
evidence of how many steps you take on a given day.

Choose Exercises You Enjoy
If you have ever wondered how other people stick to their
exercise routines, the answer is that they truly enjoy them.
Rather than struggling through a workout that you feel you
should do, choose something you like. So what if running is an
effective calorie burner? If it makes your knees hurt and you
dread putting on your running shoes, chances are you won’t
do it. Instead, think about what types of movements bring you
joy. These could be swimming laps in the neighborhood pool,
going on a hike with your dog, taking tennis lessons or signing
up for a Zumba class.
Make Time to Exercise
To work out consistently, you have to find time in your busy
schedule to do it. You also have to take into account when
your energy is the highest. If you think you’ll hit the gym after
work every day but then skip working out because you are
tired after being at the office for 9 hours, it might be a better
idea to get up 30 minutes earlier and head to the gym first
thing. The same is true if you’re a night owl. While you don’t
want to crank out 45 minutes on an elliptical machine right
before bedtime because it might prevent you from falling
asleep, if your energy peaks after dinner, use it to your fitness
advantage.
Think Small
Rather than decide to work out for an hour a day, seven days
a week, start small with a goal of three 20-minute exercise
sessions a week. If you keep things short and sweet at first,
you will be more likely to stick to your new exercise program
and increase your goals over time.
