Many at times, people think “working out” means going to the gym, lifting weights or running. And, this ends up being a barrier to exercise if we don’t like to go to the gym, lift weights or run. 
Finding a meaningful and beneficial workout plan is much simpler than many people may think. There are a wide range of activities that help to strengthen muscles and improve cardiovascular health which is overall health.

Finding a fitness plan that you can actually enjoy and will stick to is more than simply finding a recommended workout online or a fitness video series you enjoy. 

There are few steps to developing a plan that works well for you and will set you up for continued success.

Here are three simple steps to crafting your own fitness plan, based around activities you actually enjoy, and a schedule that actually works for your lifestyle:

1. what are your fitness goals?
Know your goals, and build from there. Is it weight loss? Building muscle? Tone and firm? Are your goals functional, aesthetic, or both? 

Start by getting in touch with why you want to work out. Then, you can create a plan that helps you achieve those goals.

2. What exercise activities do you like?
In order to be active and enjoy your fitness plan, 
you have to know the activities you enjoy like running, hiking, boxing. There are plenty of fun and enjoyable ways to stay active with physical activities you enjoy and find fulfilling. 

3. Create a schedule that works for you.
It’s often said that, in fitness, half the work is just putting your shoes on. For many people, the hardest part of creating a new fitness routine is just getting out the door. Whether that’s going to the gym, running in your neighborhood or going to a yoga class, the initiative it takes to get started is truly half the battle.

To make it easier on yourself to stick to a new fitness plan, there are a few important scheduling tips to follow:
When do you like exercising?What makes sense for your daily schedule? How often do you aim to be active? Do your desired activities require a specific schedule? Taking all these factors into consideration, plan out a basic weekly fitness schedule that works for you. While it’s best for consistency to keep the same schedule each week, it’s also okay if your schedule changes weekly and you need to adjust your fitness schedule accordingly. 
Stay safe and stay fit.
