Q&A for How to Make Fitness a Daily Routine

So you want to make sure that you're getting a good combination of cardio, strength training, and flexibility training. You also want to make sure that you're targeting every part of your body, so choose a good combination of lower body and upper body exercises. Keep in mind, you don't need to do all of this every day. You can do leg strength training one day, cardio the next day, and upper body strength training the next.

Based on my research, actively stretching before you work out is a great way to warm up. So there are exercises, like the Frankenstein stretch, where you'll stretch your body out by moving. This is a lot better than static stretching, which is where you just hold a muscle in a position.

It absolutely is, although I'd recommend starting slow before you try to do any fancy yoga positions. You really want to prepare your muscles by stretching them out and building your flexibility up before you do anything complicated.

It's normal to get bored with your workouts. Mix up your workouts to keep them interesting. Experiment with different activities to see which ones you enjoy. Not only will you stay interested in your workouts, you'll also target different muscles.

Yes! Even though it'll add about 10 minutes to your workout, stretching every time you workout will give you several benefits. Stretching helps limit soreness after a workout, and it helps you become more flexible. If you stretch after your workout, it also makes a good cooldown.

Reduce your calorie intake by 500-750 calories every day. You will lose weight slowly and steadily at a rate of about 0.5 kilograms a week.

If you cannot exercise in the morning but exercising is important to you, you must find another time. You could try exercising at lunch, after school, or before bed.

It is not recommended to do resistance training on the same muscle groups every day. It's important to give your muscles time to recover.

Start with basic-sit ups and push-ups and then move into harder variations. You can also try planks and boat pose.

You could try walking to school or other places that aren't far away. If you have time on the weekends, instead of going out with friends or lazing around, you could go running, biking, or swimming. You might also consider trying to come up with a way to get some light exercise while you study.

A small set of dumbbells can be used for a variety of exercises and can give a better range of motion than barbells or machines.

Get up early in the morning and exercise, or exercise after you're done with your lessons. If you take any breaks throughout the day, that could be a good time as well. Find a time that works for you.

Try planks. Begin with a small time limit, like 10-15 seconds. As you begin to feel comfortable, increase you time to 30s-45 seconds, and so on. Then when you feel strong enough, try push-ups.

Yes, it is beneficial to modify your workouts every now and then, but you don't want to do it too frequently, and you don't want your changes to be too drastic.

You should try to find some time during the weekday. If that doesn't work, consider working out on the weekends. Just remember, if you are really determined to get into better shape, you may need to making some sacrifices.

This does work for kids, just be sure to stay safe. You'll want to skip weights, as they can be harmful to those who have not gone through puberty.
