The Easiest Way To Get Started

Today I am going to open myself up and be vulnerable.

 

It is easy for me to come up with every excuse under the sun, I am too tired, I don’t have enough time, my workouts are too long, I get frustrated because I can’t lift as much weight as I used to.

 

The list goes on and on.

 

Believe it or not, we coaches are human, we go through periods where we don’t want to workout probably just like most of you.

 

This past week I have set a goal for myself to simply get in 3 workouts, even if there 30 minutes.

 

About 2 months ago I started a new training program that I thought was going to be great!

 

While the program was fantastic and I could feel myself getting stronger and increasing my energy it felt impossible to get the workouts in. They would take me close to an hour and a half from start to finish, which I just didn’t have time for.

 

I then fell for the screw it effect and just stopped doing anything altogether.

 

The thing I want you to take away most from this is what I have been doing this week to start getting back into a routine.

 

I set a schedule to workout on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday because those are the easiest days to get it done with my work schedule.

 

I am going to do the same workout each day with 4 of the most simple exercises I can think of. They take very little time to set up or think about, I can just show up and get it done. After 4 rounds of those exercises if I am feeling good and have some extra time I will just ride the bike for a few minutes, but we’ll call that extra credit.

 

If you find yourself struggling to get started with an exercise routine or you want to add in an extra day or two outside of your current workouts I want you to try to follow the same template.
