As I was going through my six month process to prepare for surgery, I had to take a fitness test and meet with a trainer. The trainer went over ideal exercise routines. He told me that I should be exercising 6 days a week for at least 1 1/2 hours each session. Of course I will need to work up to this point, right now I'm walking 4-5 days a week for 45 minutes each session and it's hard to stay motivated. When I come home from work all I want to do is curl up in my bed and watch tv. Old habits die hard. I'm really bored with walking and I'm thinking about taking a spin class or a Zumba class. I really miss water aerobics but it's so cold where I live so that will have to wait until the spring. I've really been pushing myself to stay committed to exercising and it feels great.
What are you doing to meet the exercise requirements and how are you staying motivated?
