How to work out 4 times a week
How I did it: I went a little above and beyond on this one by training for a half-marathon. But signing up for the race was really good motivation to get going on this goal. It made running consistently a priority, and I do very well with a structured training plan. I signed up for another one just so that I'll keep going.
Lessons & tips: Signing up for a race gives you a goal to work toward. Have friends keep you accountable, or even work out with a friend. Set reasonable goals--you'll give up right away if you try to do too much all at once.
Resources: Sign up for a race with charity! You'll be helping out a good cause, and you'll have extra motivation to get moving every day. I personally recommend Team in Training with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
