  Keep the big picture in mind as you figure out what you must do to start an exercise program and get back into shape. Keep in mind that, in order to make exercise something you do regularly, it must be habitual. There is a simple explanation, which most people don't even consider.
  
  Your body will undergo many changes as it responds to your new habit of exercising. This is true for anything that you do to your body - the same effect will occur. Our focus will be to discuss dieting and taking better care of yourself - as well as other important factors - as you commence with your new fitness regimen.
  
  Your body will require extra energy to function once you have undertaken an exercise program at least 3 times each week. A vitamin/mineral supplement will be necessary, as well as sufficient food to provide your body with the extra energy it needs. So be very careful if you are dieting and exercising at the same time.
  
  The one thing you want to avoid is depriving your body of much needed nutrients. If you don't, your body could actually be "starving" and this is something that you don't want to happen. If you deprive yourself of what you need, then your energy levels will plummet.
  
  Many people are impatient or pressed for time and fail to adequately prepare their bodies for exercise. You must always precede your workouts with stretching so you help to avoid mechanical injuries. It doesn't take long to stretch the muscles in your upper torso with a few static stretches. These upper body stretches can be simple twists and bends from the waist. With your hands on your waist, twist your upper body, first to one side and then to the other. You will also benefit by doing some simple stretches for your neck and upper back. You can do this by bending forward and backwards. First from the neck and then from the waist. Just be careful not to force the stretch and bend too far.
  
  There are many scientific studies that have proven that the body has amazing self-regenerating properties. You have to assume responsibility for doing what is necessary and, as you begin exercising, your body will be stressed in the correct manner and will start healing itself. Perhaps one of the more significant events will be cleaning out your body of toxins that have accumulated. Your increased blood circulation as well as lymph system circulation will have a healing effect. Keep in mind that you must eat properly, especially when you exercise, so your body has the nutrition it needs. It has long been put forth by health professionals and the medical community that anyone - no matter what their age - can improve their health and fitness. Have you ignored your fitness for a long time and now you are extremely out of shape? Start a fitness regimen with a friend. It really is a lot easier to stick with a new fitness routine if you have your partner or a friend or two participate along with you. Not only will you benefit socially - which is good for your health - but also it won't be as hard to stay on the fitness path when you share it with someone you care about. If that does not work for you then, naturally, there is nothing wrong with working out by yourself. A lot of people prefer to do just that. Don't try to run the three-minute mile the first week of your exercise regimen. Start out slowly - maybe a walk in the park or at the mall - and add in some simple exercises or stretches when you are at home.
