How to Start :
There are two goals with exercise - to care for our bodies, or if you are an athlete, to improve performance. The program below meets both of these goals.
Almost all people have an aerobic system deficiency; those that don't, will not be harmed by doing extra aerobic work. Therefore, we should start by building the aerobic base. This may take up to three months. During this time, NO anaerobic exercise should be performed. For some this may sound difficult, and it is. You will find an appropriate time or season in your schedule. Just remember that exercise is an integral part of health. Without exercise, health is not possible, so the sooner you start, the better.

Dr. Phil Maffetone wrote a book, In Fitness and in Health, which discuses the topic of exercise in depth. I have found this book to be a straight-forward, common-sense approach to exercise and have included many of his ideas in the exercise programs I recommend. I present some of these ideas below.
👉 What Is Exercise?
👉 What Is The Best Exercise For Our Bodies?
👉 Fitness vs. Health.
👉 The Anaerobic System.
👉 The Aerobic System.
👉 Exercise Goals.
👉 How to Start.
👉 Target Heart Rate.
👉 Without A Heart Rate Monitor.
👉 What to Expect.
👉 Selecting a Program.
👉 The Emotional Component.
👉 Warm Up, Cool Down and Stretching.
👉 Maximum Aerobic Function Test (MAF).
👉 Summary.
👉 When to Add Other Exercises.
