Small changes ... BIG results

Okay, I know I don't need to tell you that exercise is absolutely crucial to getting and staying healthy. Still, I can't tell you how many people tell me that they aren't working out because they are afraid they'll look stupid, they fear trying something new or, well, any other number of things you can think of. These are fears you NEED to get over. Your attitude creates your reality, so it's crucial to have the right one. The power is in your mind, so if you have negative thoughts about your self-image, if you lack confidence, or if you feel hopeless that you'll ever lose weight, you're still at square one. If you constantly tell yourself you're not capable of working out, then you're always going to feel stupid…and eventually you'll give up. But if you harness your mental power with positive thoughts that you CAN do this, and WILL do this, guess what ― you will. JM

Heading to the gym for the first time can be very intimidating and scary. Most importantly you should have a game plan before you walk in. Start by putting your plan together wether it be cardio for 45 min or lifting weights. Start with what you know and add to it as the weeks go by, asking for help if you have any questions. If you're too scared to ask someone at the gym try googling the exercise in question and you will find many youtube videos to help you. All it takes is taking the first step into the gym to start the future you'e always wanted. If you are still intimidated to go at it alone try joining a fitness class at your gym, gaining friends and confidence will help you feel comfortable. This should be a lifestyle change and not looked at as a diet. Its never to late to start over and it sure as heck doesn't have to be the start of a new year to start. So get out there and change something today. XOOXO

REMEMBER ... small changes amount to BIG results
