• Fitness Tip: Schedule exercise like an appointment. Write down exactly when you are going to workout in your calendar or planner.

  • Fitness Tip: Do standing and seated calf raises, not just one or the other. You’ll get better results by mixing things up a bit.

  • Fitness Tip: Count your repetitions backward. When you near the end of the set, you’ll think about how many you have left instead of how many you’ve done.

  • Fitness Tip: If you take medication, avoid taking it after you work out. They may actually suppress muscle growth when taken after a workout.

  • Fitness Tip: Practise exercises you don’t like. You’re probably avoiding it because you’re weak at it. The stronger you get, the easier it will become.
