Do's and Don'ts of exercise

Do;


  • Listen to your body, if your feeling good then step it up. On the other hamd, if your in pain take a day of.
  • Work your core, a solid core will do so many benifits. Make sure to include some twists and crunches into your routine.
  • Recover, don't pile runs ontop of each other you'll just end up feelimg un-motivated and fatigued. Your mucels need to recover aswell.
  • Write everything down, start a little training diary where you can note down any new workouts and keep your self motivated by looking back.

Don't,

  • Set unrealistic goals, these will probably leave you feeling down and can fill you with doubt. Instead make small manageable goals to keep you motivated.
  • Forget to hydrate yourself, dehydrated muscles will likely to tighten up. Don't forget to hydrate before and after exercise. 
  • Do too much, this is common in new runners. They will go out to fast or they will try and do un achievable distances to early.
