Walking the Walk – Exercise and Weight Loss

The road to exercise is paved with good intentions. It’s so easy to find an excuse not to exercise, to not move your butt. We are all experts at it.

The thing to remember is that exercise is absolutely essential for effective weight loss, but also for healthy living. Although life seems to get in the way when it comes to working out, doesn’t it? If you want to achieve lasting weight loss, then you have to make the decision to take some time to exercise and keep going. No apologies. Do it!

The message is simple: you want to lose weight and enjoy the rewards, to be healthier and live longer, you need to exercise. The best thing you can do is make an exercise plan. A plan is essential to keep you on track. If you’re too informal about your exercise and there’s no structure you can follow, it won’t happen.

There are three types of exercise that you should include in your plan. Aerobics, resistance and flexibility. Aerobic exercise is probably the most important, and if you’re trying to lose weight, at least one hour of aerobic exercise a day is what you should aim for. You need to approach this gradually. The best form of exercise? The simplest and easiest is to walk. This does not mean walking, it means deliberate walking: if you do this run every day, you will burn calories.

If you do your exercise plan correctly, it will be a blueprint you can use for the rest of your life. The health benefits you will enjoy from having a suitable plan will be enormous. Don’t underestimate this. Your health is determined by your actions, not by those of other people. The money definitely stops with you. Accept this challenge and go with it. It will be one of the wisest things you do.
