Starting a new workout program, or any workout program for that matter, can be a scary endeavor, but will be so worth your while. I suggest trying something different than what you used to do. There was a reason why you stopped that particular workout and did not start back up again.
Give the new workout a couple of weeks before you decide it is not for you and then try something else. Half the fun will be trying new things along the way to finding your workout preference. Also, enlist a friend or co-worker to join you. It will make the time go by faster and you can encourage each other along the way.
Once you find your workout, whether its , or hiking , , or a workout video, it will be a relief that you have found something that you like to do and will look forward to it on a regular basis. Also, set a schedule that fits your lifestyle.
