A great way to get fit is to perform reps in the ten to twelve range when you are lifting weights. You might not be able to lift as much weight, but your muscles will become more toned. The amount of reps you do is very important in getting fit.

Set goals. Having something you’re working toward makes the exercise worthwhile. Whether you want to fit into a dress, run a marathon or look great at a reunion, setting goals helps you to see a light at the end of the exercise tunnel and helps you to focus on that goal.

If you are able to, exercise first thing in the morning. It will get your metabolism going for the day. Feeling sluggish mid-morning or mid-afternoon? Get up from whatever you’re doing and take a 10-15 minute walk. Drink a couple of bottles of water while you’re at it. Do not grab that candy bar!!!

Ride your bicycle with one leg! Using just one leg at a time to propel your bicycle for short distances will help you build up more of your leg muscles. By using one leg both to push down on the pedal and to pull up you will be working more than one set of muscles. Your riding will improve dramatically as well.

See, that wasn’t that hard to read through. After reading through that, you ought to be a bit excited to start experimenting. Hopefully, these new routines yield results that work for you. If not, try something else until you are pleased with the results. That’s the best part about fitness; it can be tailored just for you.
