Are you tired of feeling guilty on Monday for your weekend?\u00a0 Do you ever feel you should give up because you have not exercised in a week?\u00a0\u00a0 Then it is time to change the way you think and make exercise a part of your lifestyle.<\/p>\n
To stick to an exercise program, we have to think of exercise as a part of our life.\u00a0 That is why I am always skeptical when I hear about crazy workout programs or unrealistic times\/places women attempt to exercise.\u00a0 If it does not fit into your lifestyle, it simply will not work.<\/p>\n
Let me share my personal example.\u00a0 Before children, I worked out 6 days a week 1-1.5 hours a day.\u00a0 However, there is no way with two children, a job, after school activities, volunteer work, and my desire to be a good wife that I am able to do that today. \u00a0If I thought I had to do that, I would definitely give up and quit. But because exercise is a part of who\u00a0I am, I had to change my expectations and develop a program that works for me and my schedule.\u00a0 I am able to stick to it because it is a part of my lifestyle<\/em> and I make it fit for me<\/em>.<\/p>\n I have such a passion for working with women to create a personal exercise and eating program that work with their lifestyle because I see so many give up when they feel hopeless.\u00a0 It can work no matter how busy life gets.\u00a0 There just has to be a change in thinking.<\/p>\n Number 10\u00a0 in our top ten ways to stick to an exercise program:<\/p>\n Make it a part of your lifestyle<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n In Good Health,<\/p>\n Crystal<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Are you tired of feeling guilty on Monday for your weekend?\u00a0 Do you ever feel you should give up because you have not exercised in a week?\u00a0\u00a0 Then it is time to change the way you think and make exercise a part of your lifestyle.
