Press Release Body = The 5 Hidden Costs of Your Old Workout Routine

As women all over the nation rush out to fulfill their resolutions to diet, lose
weight, and exercise, many are overwhelmed by the sheer number of exercise and
fitness programs out there, personal trainer and fitness expert Leah Arnold has done
your homework for you, giving you her list of the top five pit falls of sticking
with a worn out exercise program, or joining a program that will wear out before you
do! "Among my most successful clients lie a handful of critical steps that kept
them on track, and kept their goals in focus. My most successful clients avoided
some costly mistakes and know these very simple truths that could save you time,
money, effort, and energy as you pursue your personal fitness goals this year."

1. Monotony!
You are far less likely to keep working towards your goals if you let yourself
become trapped in a program or routine that never changes. Make sure you have a
range of options and choices in your health and fitness program, so that when
monotony rears its ugly head, you can shake it off by shifting gears and adding new
classes or workouts.

2. Not knowing the difference between a \"quick\" workout and a \"quality\" workout!
If you have weight loss goals but have never tried interval training, you\'re
definitely not getting the most out of your time, money, or effort! There isn\'t much
that\'s more effective at taking off extra weight as utilizing interval training.
Proper use of interval training can help you burn up to 700% more fat calories per
minute, so it\'s definitely worth looking into!

3. Believing one size fits all.
With all of the look-a-like homogenized express programs available, it's very easy
to be lulled into believing that what works for one person will work for you. Demand
variety and choice in your fitness program. Look for facility that\'s willing to help
you build your very own program, and help you to tweak it as you get closer to your
goals.

4. Lack of knowledge.
If you have substantial goals you want to reach, but have never spent time with a
certified trainer, you\'re not wringing the most out of your time and money. A
certified trainer has a wealth of information to pass on that will make your time
spent exercising the most effective it can possibly be, and help you avoid the
pitfalls of over training, de-training and plateaus.

5. Procrastination!
Procrastinating kills goals and stymies positive outcomes. If you\'re not seeing the
results you want in your current routine, do something about it now! Hanging on to a
system or routine that isn\'t working for you will only continue to cost you more
time and money without paying out the dividends you were expecting.
