Over the years I have changed my exercise routine continuously. That wasn’t exactly planned, but it probably kept my interest up. I started with twice-a-week through Adult Education at the local junior high school. That was simple non-impact bending. That was too easy. Then I moved into Jazzercise, which was high impact. I began to really enjoy that. But it was only offered twice-a-week. My energy level blossomed. I now am up to six days per week, and sometimes even that isn’t enough!

I joined many health clubs over the years. After the high
school routine, which got dull after a while, I needed to
find something that would allow more days of exercising.
It had to fit my schedule, since I’ve

always worked full
time. There’s no choice there! Adult Education classes are
only offered during the week for the most part and usually only once or twice a week. That’s simply unacceptable for someone who needs to reduce stress, anxiety, nervous illness, depression and other problems.

It’s raining outside. Your shoes are still wet from your last walking session. You really should just go out and exercise, but there’s something good on TV. Maybe later…

Sound familiar?

Now try this scenario: It’s raining outside. Your shoes are wet and you don’t really feel like going for a walk, but your cell phone is blinking with a message from your buddy that says she’s already left the house and she’ll meet you at the trail. You know you have to go, or she’ll give you a hard time for ditching her. So, you grab your soggy shoes and head off for a power walking session. Afterwards, you feel good.

You always feel good afterwards; it’s the getting started part that’s hard.
