Ep 1: Getting Out the Door | Preparing for Your Walk with a Routine

Before anything else, preparation is the key to success. -Alexander Graham Bell

In today’s Walking for Health and Fitness episode 1, I will discuss:

Preparations you can do to make getting out the door and walking a well-organized routine that puts you in the right frame mind to have an awesome walk.
And you’ll learn about the seemingly odd items I carry with my on my walk… this will make perfect sense in a few moments.

How many times have you been excited to do something whether it was a big project, or you had a burst of inspiration you wanted to act on only to be sidetracked and ultimately derailed as you hunted high and low for the necessary items you needed to go forward with your task.

Exercising is no different than any other activity you may undertake. You’re excited to begin getting back into shape and you want to take advantage of the beautiful day and get out for a walk.
