To Cycle or not to Cycle...that is the question! by Randy Mclean

Did the title of this months tip peak your curiosity? I hoped it would. With the new year comes many new questions, just what is cycling anyway? Well as you continue you will find out just how it will benefit you and make losing weight and getting into shape much easier.

When most people start an exercise program one of the main reasons they will stop is due to a lack of motivation. Looking at this further we often find that most people find their program too strenuous and overwhelming. This is perfectly understandable. But is there a solution to this problem? You bet!

As you probably know, when someone hasn't exercised in awhile and is used to a generally sedentary lifestyle the last thing a person should do is just 'jump' into a program like that. Only a select few can handle that. These are usually the people who either have very strong will power or who have exercised in the past. But for those who aren't in the above group let me introduce you to cycling.

The best way to start an exercise program is to start with a lesser volume. That way your body has time to adapt and you won't feel so inclined to give up. Let me show you an example of this in terms of a cardio program. The times can be adjusted to your needs:

Weeks 1 and 2 - 20 minutes 3 times a week

Weeks 3 to 6 - 30 minutes 3 times a week
