Team Fitness Gurus No. 22: New Equipment and Memberships








Did you receive new exercise equipment or a wellness center membership this Christmas? Here are a few tips that will help you launch your new exercise lifestyle safely. Ask you doctor, physical therapist, or personal trainer for guidance concerning how often to exercise and to what intensity. Make sure that you are wearing the right clothing and footwear, and that your workout environment is ventilated and free of obstacles. Don’t forget to read the equipment manual and watching or reading product reviews and videos online can also be helpful. Remember to keep your fitness goals in mind, pay attention to what you are doing when your exercise, and be aware of all of the safety features of your new fitness equipment. Wondering about commitment and motivation? Exercise with a buddy or group and you will find that this provides a great source of fun and built-in motivation!
