To get the body you want you have to take the important first step of sitting down and planning your workout routine. It is important to devise a routine so that you are putting in effort consistently into your personal fitness. This is very important and will do you far more good, than heading down to the gym on an ad hoc basis and beasting yourself. Once you have got your plan then comes the tricky part of following it!

Planning


Step 1
Determine how often you will be able / are prepared to go to the gym. It is generally better to pick specific times and days rather than just vaguely say I will go three times a week.


Step 2
Decide what you want out of your exercise. For instance if you want muscle you would do weightlifting and if you want to lose fat cardiovascular exercise would be the order of the day.


Step 3
Devise a specific plan of action (see guidance below for weightlifting and cardiovascular). Remember it is all very well having general goals such as I want a six pack but you need to link these goals to action. For instance you might say I will go to the gym on Monday and Wednesday and do 30 sit ups each week.


Step 4
Make a commitment, even the best plan in the world will do nothing for you unless you follow through. Keep this in mind when doing the planning by not making unrealistic demands on yourself and where possible use activities and you enjoy and are actually likely to do. Consider getting a partner -Having a training partner can put positive pressure on you both to actually turn up and do your exercises. It might even make it more fun!


Step 5
Force yourself to keep at it for 4 – 6 weeks it takes this long to make anything a habit so you will really have to focus during this time. After this the training should start to feel more natural. Furthermore you will start to see results after this time and this will help motivate you.

Cardiovascular Exercise


Step 1
Incorporate 30-minute exercise sessions into your schedule. Thirty minutes of daily exercise is adequate for most people. Make sure you warm up slowly for five minutes then go steady for twenty minutes at a moderate pace and then slow down for the last five.


Step 2
Select the specific form of exercise you will undertake for instance will you be on the treadmill, stepper or in the swimming pool?


Weight Lifting


Step 1
Set aside 30- to 60-minute workout sessions for lifting. If you don’t spend a lot of time socializing or resting during your workout you can get a good session of lifting done in that time. Don’t rest more than 60 seconds between sets.


Step 2
Begin by performing total body workouts aimed at conditioning every major muscle group (upper body, lower body and back). Balanced development is extremely important.


Step 3
Split your workouts as you become a more experienced lifter. This will enable you to better concentrate on specific muscle groups and areas. A common split that targets every major muscle group is: chest and triceps, back and biceps, shoulder and legs.


Step 4
Rest your muscles between sessions. Allow each muscle group at least one day of rest between sessions. Your muscles can’t grow unless they have time to rest and heal. Make sure you get enough sleep and eat a good diet as well as failing to do so can inhibit your muscle growth.
