I love this post!! It is so true that people are individual so why would we expect that one exercise should suit all? Thankfully there’s so many options so I am convinced that everyone can find something that works for them:)

Hey Zan, great, great, great message. This is so perfect and so true. Personality has a lot to do with how well a resolution is kept. I love it, Thanks for sharing!! Like others here, I try to just keep a life-long goal of living healthy, taking care of myself, my family, our planet etc… Recently I did resolve to spend more time on me but again, that’s part of life not just a New Year’s resolution.

Hooping is becoming a real phenomenon, it seems! I keep randomly coming across posts about it in different places online. I wish I could find a non-threatening hooping class here in town.

As for me, I’m mixing up my own fitness routine a bit this month—just bought Dance Dance Revolution ;). I think that giving something new a try every now and then is just what the doctor ordered.

i’m easily bored with same fitness routine as well. i try to change up as much as possible. i’m looking to do a few things lose weight, get healthy, and hopefully those things will lessen my thyroid disease symptoms :) i don’t have resolutions but more of a life goal: finish what i start and not do it half way.

btw thanks for the link up :)

Am SO with you on the machines- bored to tears by them! Although a hula hooping class would be great:D

It’s so interesting the way we’re all different as to how we can exercise. That’s what makes it so much fun to experiment with all kinds of exercise and different ways of exercising; we can figure out which way works best for us as individuals!

I totally agree. I used to work out on machines at the gym for about 40 min a session. Problem with that was that I worked out after work and spent all day dreading it. So much that I only made it there once a week. I’ve recently adjusted my daily schedule to go to sleep earlier to wake up in order to do a little yoga and go for a brisk 20-30 minute walk outside. The energy boost it gives me is making enough of an impact in my daily life that I think I may be able to turn in into a regular thing. Plus, for me, walking around outside is enjoyable enough that it doesn’t feel like “working out.” And because I do it more than once a week, I know it’s more beneficial than my once a week gym sessions. And this is coming from a total non-jock btw.

Hi Zandria,
I think you hit it well – when you said you need to do what you love (or at least like). That’s the only thing you’ll stick with. I want to get outside and run again (ugh – cold, snow, and ice – not a good combo for that!). And I need to hit the resistance training again – I’ve been off for a month. That’s the one place I do like to have a plan in place – so I can have an action plan of resistance-based workouts, and also to keep track of my progress. Good luck, Zandria, in sticking with it all, and having some fun in the process!
