Weight Loss Training Plans

If you lack the enthusiasm and drive to commit to and stick with your weight loss training plans, here are some tips to keep you on track.

1. If you are lacking enthusiasm to start your weight loss training plans try mixing with people who are doing the kind of activities you would like to be doing. Any good weight loss training plans are going to be centred around aerobic exercise, probably walking, swimming, cycling and/or jogging, so a good place to start may be a local Triathlon or Fun Run. I have recently been at two Triathlon events. One as a Marshall helping with putting on the event and one as a competitor.  At both of these events spectators have commented to me that they hadn’t realised that there would be people of all ages, shapes and sizes doing the events. Some who have never done a triathlon or any organised event before have decided to start training and getting in shape to do the event next year. Simply because seeing so many ordinary people taking part has inspired them, when their preconceptions had been that these kind of events were only for elite athletes.
2. Set goals for your weight loss training plans as well as your ultimate weight loss goal which will be measured in pounds or kilograms, set training goals for your weight loss training plans. Base these more around frequency, volume and duration rather than pace and intensity. Stick to low perceived exertion or heart rate  for the intensity but set goals on how much you will be able to achieve by a certain date, and good motivation for this is to enter an event. If it’s a charity event even better, more commitment.
3. Pick an event far enough in advance to allow you to build up your training in time. Write a simple plan with a starting point of where you are now, and an end as your event. Break the time up in to months the weeks. Set a progressive target for each month that will take you from where you are now to your event. Then break up each month in to small targets for each week. If you are planning a 10km fun run in six months time and at the moment you walk one mile in about twenty minutes before you are tired. You could start walking fifteen each day for five days, have a day off then walk twenty minutes the next day. In seven days time your target is to do twenty five minutes, following the same pattern you could do five days at seventeen minutes, day off the do twenty five, and so on. After two months you could introduce  aone minute jog after every nine minutes walking……….
4. Tell your friends and family what you have commited to doing, and ask for their support, ask them to help you keep commite to your targets and your goal. Some of them may even decide to join you and start their own weight loss training plans, and then you will already have something to be proud of, helping someone you care about begin to get healthier lose weight and have a happier life.
