I'm aware of my health problems and I admit to having bad habits,so I am going to try to exercise more often because I have a lot of time on my hands. I have to come up with a clever plan to change these habits. Last year, I used to go swimming, do athletics or play tennis. My friends made fun of me because I always got hurt (It was either my leg or my arm and so on and so forth). But this year, I became a real couch potato. I'm considering going on a diet and buying new equipment like a new indoor bicycle and all that sort of stuff. Without taking notice of the things I already have, I'll buy new things to motivate me. I wish it was easy to begin practicing a new sport. It always hurts your muscles and it's very daunting and tough at first. Tomorrow morning I'll get up early and go out to run. Aside from that, I'll lift weights in the afternoon.

I was told that drinking lot of water is very important because if you lose one percent of water during the exercise, your performance decreases 10 percent, so I need to drink water before, during and after exercising. I found a marvelous website , www.bodyrock.tv (from then on I became a bodyrocker as she says), where you can learn tips and find fitness advice or workout videos. I've learned a lot from Zuzana. She knows a lot: I tip my hat to her. You should check out her videos on Youtube because they're strikingly good. Every time I watch her videos I learn something. I really appreciate her exhaustive efforts to make us more healthy.

My goal is to raise the bar each day, and at the end of 2011 I'll be able to do the same workouts that I did in 2009. As I get used to the workouts I have to eat only low-calorie food like fish. Of course lots of water, and no soft drinks or alcohol. Which is quite easy because I never liked them to begin with.
