Starting Exercise Over 40 Continued #4

Now that you've started to exercise, change it up. If you are a walker or runner, take a few turns on the stationary bike or riding around your neighborhood. If you have access to a pool, go swim a few laps. This will prevent the boredom that comes by doing the same thing over and over again.

This is also true for strength training. Progress here is made by increasing the weight you lift. You can also switch the routine, add or subtract different muscle groups. You can utilize any number of books to help you with this or higher a trainer for one session every couple of months. You don't have to have a trainer every time you workout, but use them to help you add spice and variety to your workouts.
