Don't give up yet. 

Try this Walking Schedule for seven days and then give it another try for seven days.

If you enjoy jogging more than walking try this same schedule.

Regular Exercise takes commitment, time and patience.

Day 1     Stand up and stretch.  Now take a five minute walk.

Day 2     Stand up and stretch.  Now take a six minute walk.

Day 3     Stand up and stretch.  Now take a seven minute walk.

Day 4     Stand up and stretch.  Now take an eight minute walk.

Day 5     Stand up and stretch.  Now take a nine minute walk. 

Day 6     Stand up and stretch.  Take the day off.

Day 7     Stand up and stretch.  Take a ten minute walk.

Now you need a few items for your Walking Adventures.

1.  A pair of walking socks.

2.  A pair of walking shoes.

3.  A pair of walking gloves.

4.  A walking scarf.

5.  A walking hat.

6.  A pair of walking pants.

7.  A walking stick.

8.  A walking log book.

9.  A walking dog.

10. A walking attitude.

11. A walking jacket.

12. A tube of walking sunscreen. (yes, even in the winter)

You might have all these things except an Exercise Attitude. 

Start slow and give your body the chance to adapt to your new attitude.

Make Regular Physical Activity your Choice!
