How to beat your exercising excuses.
- Make sure you warm up well. Begin your warm by walking for 2 minutes and then start jogging. Run easily for about 5 minutes. Taking walking breaks when you need them.
- Keep your pace slow. Do not run too quickly as this will make the session hard.
- Run somewhere new so you do not get bored of your running route.
- Try running some of the free 5K time trial runs in the local parks. These are great fun and provide a good monitor as to how your training is working out.
- Have a go at a new exercise class. Do a workout that you have not done before. This will keep you motivated and help supplement your training.
- Start to run using a heart rate monitor. This will provide a good indicator to how hard you are training and your progression.
