It is safe to say, working out has been part of my routine for as long as I can remember. It has become part of me. Sure there have been periods of time when my workouts may not have been as hard as usual, but I can honestly say I have worked out in some form for the last 35 years. I have found what works and what doesn’t! During my college years, I took anatomy, kinesiology, exercise physiology, and most of the other –ology classes in an attempt to better understand the human body. Since then I have continued my study of exercise by reading dozens of books and hundreds of articles on the latest routines. I am simply fascinated by exercise. As a medical doctor, I understand the importance of telling you that you need some form of exercise in your life. Everyone does! If your health plan does not include an exercise routine, you are doing your body an injustice. The 100 Percent Decision The biggest obstacle most people have when it comes to exercise is just making the decision to do it. For most people, exercise is something they commit to every year in January by renewing their gym membership. Then by February, they have stopped going to the gym. The most important thing you can do for your body is to make the 100 Percent Decision. The 100 Percent Decision is a commitment you make to yourself that from this day forward you will exercise for at least 30 minutes every single day for the rest of your life. By making this decision today, you will take away the need for all future decision making about working out. You will no longer need to argue with yourself daily about whether or not you are going to workout. The word decision comes from the same root word as incision. It means to cut off all other possibilities. By making the 100 Percent Decision, you are committing yourself to being healthy for the rest of your life. [Ed.
