Get Inspired to Exercise at Home

Here are some tips to help you get—and keep you—all fired up to work out at home.

• See your success. Visualize how you want to feel and what types of fitness activities you actually enjoy doing.
• Pick a day and time to practice. Schedule time for exercise just like you would anything else.
• Start off with something reasonable. Try 20 minutes of cardio or strength training twice a week to start and build up from there. 
• Get outside! Time in the great outdoors can make exercise seem effortless.
• Get your groove on. Pick up music with a beat that moves you.
• Find some inspiration. Snag a DVD, podcast, or a book and follow along for guidance.
• Mix it up. Try a variety of different activities, so you don’t get bored.
• Don’t go it alone. Work out with a friend to help keep each other motivated.
