Starting Out

I think the most important aspect of an exercise program when starting out is consistency. Choosing which program to follow can be quite daunting. Every fitness professional (and gym user) has their own formula for gaining success, but all methods will provide very little long term gain if your training is not consistent. A consistent program means training 3+ times per week. It doesn't have to be the same program each time. You can walk, swim, do weights, aerobics, cycle, absolutely anything. Just Move!
