The first step in starting an exercise program is identifying how it will fit into your lifestyle.
Ask yourself:
· Is it beneficial?
· Is it enjoyable?
· Is it safe?
· Do I know the correct way?
· Can I do this on a regular basis?
· How will this fit into my schedule?
· What will this cost me?
· Are there any negative consequences?
Only you can decide if walking is the best for your fitness plan. First, determine how many steps you take in an average day - from the time you get up in the morning to bedtime - following your normal routine. Do this by wearing a pedometer. Record the number of steps you take each day for 3 days. Add the steps per day together and divide by 3. This will give you a good estimation of your average day.
