QuestionWhy do I never stick to my fitness plan?Francisco Gomez is the Head Coach at the FIT Potato Gym, a training gym established in 2001 in the San Francisco Bay Area.

The main thing is that you really want to take stock of how much time you have. If you're super busy, you need to figure out how much time you can actually dedicate to working out so you can set a reasonable goal. The other thing is, you should actually print or write out your fitness plan and then post it somewhere where you'll see it all the time. This way, it will kind of stick out in your mind and you'll have a much easier time remembering to work out.

This could include walking, stretching, yoga, or bike riding. This way, you won't get discouraged when you're starting out and you'll work your way up to the tougher stuff.
