How to Plan a Fitness Exercise Program

By eHow Contributor

Planning a fitness exercise program is just as important as following one. There are a few things to keep in mind while planning a fitness exercise program.

Instructions

1. Set goals for yourself. When you set these goals for your fitness exercise program, remember to factor in your age, your family history, the amount of work you're willing to put in and how often, and what you'd like to achieve.
   
   2
   Visit a healthcare professional to go over your goals and what you'd like to achieve to make sure you're in good enough health to get started and stay going.
   
   3
   Work towards your goals. Choose exercises that you are interested in doing. For example, if you have set a goal to get leaner legs, you'll want to choose some really good leg exercises. When speaking with a physician, they can recommend some good exercises for you if you aren't really sure what to start with.
   
   4
   Assess your goals regularly to determine if you need to make adjustments. This will help to see if you're making any progress and if not, then you'll know that your fitness exercise program needs a little tweaking.
