Regular exercise has many benefits to your overall health but sometimes we aren't always able to keep a regular schedule with working out. Getting sick, injured, life emergencies or even holidays can all keep us from staying consistent with exercising on a regular schedule. The important thing to know is that it is OK to take breaks or step away for a bit if you need to. It's also important to know that there are a few helpful ways to get back into exercising when you are ready.

In This Episode You Will Learn:

1). How going through a life experience or even a new year can help inspire you to get back to exercising if you've taken an extended break.

2). The average time it takes to get "back on track" with exercise after an extended time off.

3). How scheduling your workouts are a great way to mentally help motivate you to stay consistent with exercise.

4). Why finding a fun exercise activity or something you enjoy is important when getting back to exercising.

5). Why it's helpful to stay social with exercising like joining a class or having a buddy to help keep you (and your buddy) accountable.
