January! Let's go!

What a great time to begin an exercise program. I start my year off by committing to 3 hours of aerobic exercise per week or 12 hours per month. If I get behind in any week I allow myself to make up the time as long as I do the 12 hours. I use Ontri.com to log in my aerobic exercise and seeing the time build up really motivates me to keep going. I keep this going pretty well until June/July when I get outdoors more often to hike, play tennis and tend to the yard.

Three hours may be too aggressive for some, but try starting with 90 minutes per week and work your way up to at least 150 minutes.

Good luck and stay fit.
