I have been working out with a trainer for a few weeks now. My goals are to lose about fifteen pounds and make exercise part of my daily routine.

In starting my workout, I warm up by walking on the treadmill or using the elliptical machine for ten minutes. Then, my trainer does some medicine ball exercises with me and brings me up to speed.

Also, I use the dumbbells to help strengthen my upper body muscles. For abdominal, I use the crunch machine which folds my body in a sandwich back n’ forth. Moreover, my trainer requires me to do sixty to seventy sit-ups.

Drink plenty of water throughout the day.

Eat breakfast every morning before starting your day, something with protein. For example, handful of walnuts, Eggs boiled, Cereal with milk, etc.

Working in office, take a break from your office and walk around for body stretch.

Taking a walk with a coworker or friend during lunchtime helps put the mind on ease.

Eat fresh vegetables and fruits for snacks when hungry.

Eat dinner 2-3 hours before going to bed.

Be sure to get 8 hours of sleep every night.

By Dolly | Jun 5, 2008

First and foremost, write a schedule to set goals or what needs to be accomplished in a daily routine. After that, write everything in a planner in case it is still undone, so there won’t be any chance of forgetting about it.

If there is a problem with timing, where you are not able to do two things at once, then you must prioritize.

Most importantly, utilize breaks and spare time as needed to take a breather from the daily busyness.
