So many people start on some form of exercise routine, full of enthusiasm, only to give up months, weeks, days or sometimes even after the first session – why?

Not because it hurts or costs too much, but usually because “I don’t have the time right now”, “It’s more important for me to do something else”, “What’s the payback – I don’t see any results!”  These are thinly disguised ways of saying that the exercises are not really an acceptable part of your lifestyle ie they are boring.

Well boredom comes in many forms and pretty much any repetitive activity will become boring  – so how to offset it?

Human beings are strange creatures.  On the one hand, they need a certain amount of routine to function comfortably and on the other they are easily bored.

I think the answer might lie in the idea that people do not have to spend to much time on keeping fit, but they do have to concentrate whilst they are doing it.  Something I have called “Easy Fitness”.

What do you think?
