The Pain Free Workout

We have been told over and over, "no pain, no gain". And many of us not only WANT to workout, but know that we NEED to workout. One of the things that I have discovered in thinking about this issue is the fact that PEOPLE DON'T LIKE PAIN!



Why rush to a gym when you know you are going to be sore, and barely move the next day? Most people have opted to attempt to adjust their diet without working out, hoping that they can still accomplish their fitness goals. But we all know that it just doesn't work.

What if there was a way to start working out, but have no soreness or pain afterwards? What if we could take away the excuse of, "I can't because it hurts"? What if you can really stick to your work out routine and see the benefits of living a healthy lifestyle?

Well if you are interested, I'll give you a couple things to think about. In all, there are 7 steps to make sure you are never sore, but let's start with step #1.

Don't Do To Much on the First Day!

Ask yourself when was the last time you worked out. This should give you a frame of reference to understand where you should start. If you were running 2 miles, but haven't run for over a year, then you should start walking! When you stop working out, and the only workout you have is the laps to and from the kitchen and couch, you program your body to do that level of exercise. To try to jump back into what you used to be able to do is not wise. You will find your body resist and protest in the form of soreness and fatigue.

Remember, it took you a while to build up to where you ended before. Make sure you remember to start slow, and build your way up to your ultimate fitness goals. If you do this, you are well on your way to a PAIN FREE WORKOUT!
