i was getting a little bit of pain above and below my left eye. I thought it was only some sinus infection, but then the eye got worse and worse and I felt lousy. For almost two weeks i did not exercise at all apart from getting up every morning and moving throught the house.
Then after about two weeks I made it to the gym again. The eye was better and the sinusitis and also the touch of bronchitis that i suspected that was looming.
I did a workout for about an hour with a personal trainer (super quailified and great guy) and I was huffing and puffing. i did not think that I would be able to do much of a running session after that. I was tired!
I started slowly and gradually picke up the speed and ran for 95 minutes. Now. maybe it as too mcuhd for the first day back, but I felt great!
So the most important thing is just to start, to resume, to get back into it. So if you are wondering if you should start, make the following plan:
Agree to meet with someone at a specific time to do something together. It could be a 30 minute walk, it could be a workout in a group or with a personal trainer. If you have a bicycle, you could meet with someone for a ride. The point is : Make a date in your diary/calendar and stick to that!
So if you have not started, make a plan to start.
On the other hand ...
if you want to get back to a routine, take the same action. Get started, put it in your diary and arrange with someone to meet with you. If you have a squash partner, phone him or her and set up the game.
You have to start with something...
Now if you are overweight or obese, do not go out and try to run 10 km on the first attempt. you may injure yourself or be so stiff and sore that you do not want to go back for three weeks. Be gentle with yourself. If you have not exercised for a while, visit a doctor so you can get guideliness for your particular health challenges.
Then consider swimming, aqua-aerobics or just walking in the pool if you cannot swim.
If you do not have a pool or access to one, cycling is also soft on the body.
It does not matter what you do, you have to start exercising at least three times a week for 30 to 45 minutes a time. Later you could increase that. Be wise and get started!
