Hello everyone – and I hope that you are enjoying the Summer. I can’t believe that the unofficial end of Summer, Labor Day, is only a couple of weeks away. Time flies when you’re having fun.
So…when is the best time to start an exercise or fitness program?
Many people believe that after the holidays, at the beginning of the New Year, is the best time to think about getting fit and healthy. Of course, that’s because quite a few people will make a “resolution” to get fit, only to forget about that resolution in a couple of weeks, or less.
Some people want to start the year fresh, so they believe that “this is the year I’m going to start thinking about myself.” Of course, then the excuses start: I’m waiting for my credit card statements from holiday shopping; I need to pay off some bills from Christmas…and so on, and so on.
Post holiday season…gone.
Ah…Spring!! The warmer weather starts to arrive and with the warmer weather there are less clothes to hide behind. So now people think about getting into that cute outfit for the Spring. Especially in Virginia Beach, swimsuit season is right around the corner. So let’s start a fitness program now.
And the excuses: I would really want to start a program but the Summer will be here before you know it, school will be out and vacation plans will only sabotage my good intentions; I don’t have time right now – the Summer will be so busy for me.
Spring season…gone.
Here’s Summer!!! No good…too much running around; vacations to plan; I have to spend more time with my children; I think I’ll wait until the Summer is over.
Summer season…gone.
Finally, the Fall season has arrived. People want to take off some of those excess Summer pounds and start getting stronger. Of course, you want to look and feel better before Thanksgiving and Christmas arrives. People gain an average of 10 pounds of excess bodyfat between those two holidays.
But, of course, this is not a good time to start living healther – holiday parties are going to derail my good intentions.
So, in an eye blink another 365 days have gone by with more excess pounds and less conditioning.
The above comments are all actual excuses we have heard at Fitness Together. People will do or say anything just to get out of doing the “right” thing, which is getting in shape and living a healthy lifestyle.
What is your excuse?
