Fitness: Working out

Hello everyone! As the new year proceeds, many of us set goals for ourselves, today, I will be talking about one of then and how to achieve it. 
The  biggest thing about being healthy is eating right and exercising more I will focus on working out; especially if your goal is to lose weight, However many of us get caught up in where to begin. Alas, here are a few tips to help you out! 
1. Find a partner and push each other. It is very easy to think you have done enough when your alone. This way, you can keep taps on each other, and help each other stay on course. 
2. Break down your goal so that you have check points. For example: if you are trying to lose 50 pounds total, set a goal to lose 5 pounds each month, and have specific weigh ins. This leaves you with two months to maintain your goal wight. 
3. Set a schedule. This is something you must do for any goal you make. Time management is very important and if you are like me, you have to plan for things or you will be unorganized quickly. You should first pick days you want to go to the gym, and that fit in you schedule. Next, pick times and stick to it. Once you plan out when you want to go to the gym, plan out what you are going to do and for how long. 
4. find a personal trainer. For the college student, this might be a bit hard because of finical constraints. but you could take a fitness class instead. What I have written are only tips; I am no professional, so always seek that help. This leads me to my 5th point,
5. See a doctor. Many people think that the only time you go to a doctor is when you are sick but a doctor is there for your health and well being. If you are tyring to lose a few pounds, see a doctor to make sure that you are doing it in a healthy way. they can give you more specific health tips and signs designed for your body type. its important to get the low down form someone professional. 


Hope this helps all of you! Happy New year
