Good Fitness Is Hard Work

If you are out of shape, you know what a daunting task getting back in shape can be. There are a couple of really simple things that you need to do to get to where you need to be.

The first is to eat health and a reasonable amount of food at least 6 days a week (and only splurge a little on day 7).

The second is to exercise. If you are eating healthy and you aren't getting back in shape then you need to exercise more. There are many fitness tips that you can follow, but the simple fact is that you need to burn more calories that you consume. Mixing up aerobic exercise with weight lifting is a very good combination, but don't put too much pressure on yourself. Just get started with a simple exercise that you enjoy today. Walking, jogging, swimming or joining a recreational sports team are all good places to start.
