Motivation Monday

Since beginning this blog a few weeks ago my exercise routine has taken second place. At the best of times it is all too easy for me to push exercise to the back of my mind and find a multitude of other things to do as I do not particularly enjoy exercising. Beginning this blog was a great excuse. I did not mean to use the blog to get out of exercising. It just sort of happened somehow.

I know exercise is very important for a healthy lifestyle and I do feel better when I have a regular exercise routine. It is just the initial starting that is difficult especially after an extended absence so I went looking  for some motivation. I found this short aerobic video on YouTube which is an ideal gentle introduction. It only takes a minute to complete but hopefully it will spur me on to do some more exercise during the day.

I cannot remember where but I read that you should always do some exercise on a Monday and a Friday because if you don’t it is unlikely you will do it any other time during the week. This makes perfect sense to me so today is a great day to get back into my exercise routine.  I hope you will join me!
