1. Put your exercise on the calendar. doing so will help protect you from distractions. This also sends a message that this period of time is not to be taken away from you.

4. Make it interesting. Even if you enjoy running this week this doesn’t mean you’ll want to run next week or the week after that. If you want to keep things interesting for you and for your body which respond less and less to monotonous exercise over time, make sure you are prepared to do at least two to three different at home workouts every week.
