No matter what area of your life you focus on, planning ahead can help you be more successful. If it’s financial, creating a budget helps. If it’s your social life, planning get-togethers also helps. The same is true for staying healthy and getting fit. It might seem like some people magically stay fit and avoid heart or other health issues, but it’s years of habit that does it. They may not have planned because their habits came from the people that surrounded them as a child. You may not be that lucky, but you can change your luck with planning.
Will losing weight or increasing your endurance improve your heart health? Identify what you want to change and plan around it. Your goal needs to be realistic. You can’t expect to go from a couch potato to a marathon runner in a month. If you want to lose weight, state the exact amount you want to lose. Keep it realistic. Plan to lose one to two pounds a week and give yourself a deadline to reach your goal as you create mini, weekly goals for your plan.
Giving up food with added sugar can go a long way to having a healthier heart, but you need a plan if you want more dietary nutrients. Meal planning may be the help you need. You plan healthy meals one day and create a grocery list. You shop on another day and cook for the entire week on your day off. Include snacks in your planning. When you get home from work, all you have to do is heat and eat. Meal planning saves time and makes eating heart-healthy meals easier.
Just like losing weight or eating healthy, an exercise program requires planning. Endurance exercises can help your heart the most. Include exercises for all types of fitness in your workout, including endurance, balance, strength, and flexibility. Create a plan that includes exercises for each one. Write your workout time on your schedule as you would any appointment and keep that same time consistently. It creates a habit that’s hard to break.
