I did OK at the race, but I managed to hurt myslef in the process and could have done better. Write down the plan, post it on your refrigerator, in your car and by your computer at work to remind yourself of your plan. Now <strong>Commit to the Plan!<\/strong>, be positive and know that you can do this.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step Two- Start Small<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lets start simple to avoid injury and show that simple changes can really do alot. Drive to work or to the shopping mall and intentionally try to get a spot far from the door to the building. (<em>This is opposed to waiting five minutes for the closest spot.<\/em>) This extra little walk is a start. Next if where you work is below five stories (not the total height, just the floor you work on), take the stairs instead of the elevator to get up to your office. If you have to go down for lunch, to get something from your car or any other reason, take the stairs down.<\/p>\n<p>Next is the importance of <u>drinking water<\/u>. The proper amount of water will keep you healthy and when you urinate it should be clear not <font color=\"yellow\">yellow<\/font>. This will cause you to get up more often to get water and go to the bathroom (more steps). Don&#8217;t forget to check your office mailbox for any mail. The more steps the better and its <font color=\"red\">Simple<\/font>.<\/p>\n<p>One of my next posts will cover the other steps to <u>Exercise Success<\/u>.
