Here is a sample Exercise Plan:
- Do check with your doctor before starting any exercise program.
- Do some form of cardiovascular activity for at least for 30 minutes, 3 days a week. Start slow and increase as times goes bye. As you get stronger increase your level of activity, try exercising 5 days a week for 40 minutes to 1 hour each day. The important thing is to start and stick with it!
- Switch up your activities. If you do walking one day, then try bicycle riding or swimming the next time you exercise. The more you change your exercise, the more you’ll get out of it and this will keep you motivated.
- If possible, try to do your exercises in the morning and if you have time, do it again in the evening—a second session will burn even more calories. However try not to exercise too close to bedtime, or all that excitement could keep awake.
- Every three weeks try to increase your program by 10 percent. So if you’re walking 1 mile, then start walking 1.1 miles. If you’re riding the bike for 30 minutes a session, try 33 minutes. The idea is to gradually increase the length of your exercise sessions and their intensity.
