For me, consistency in GETTING to the gym is key. Doesn't matter what I do when I get there or how long I'm there--as long as I go, I'm nurturing the habit of health.

The biggest problem I have with the consistency is within a couple weeks of starting working out at a gym, I ALWAYS catch a horrible cold. It keeps me out of the gym for a week, and then the habit is incredibly difficult to get back.

This time around, I'm taking it easy, despite what do-gooders say. For instance, my endurance athlete teen claims failing at something big is better than succeeding at something small. He wants this obese 40-year-old woman with high blood pressure to start out running instead of walking. Lol So I'm walking 20-30 minutes three times a week to start. And it's WORKING! :-)
