Article: Setting a manageable goal, like exercising 3 times a week, makes it more likely that you'll meet your goal, because you won't feel discouraged if you miss a day. When you are able to work out without feeling pressured, you might even find that you're motivated to work out more often than your goal! In general, you should do 150 minutes of cardio a week, and add resistance training on at least 2 days of the week. When you're focusing on getting in shape, it's important to balance endurance training, or cardio, with strength training exercises like lifting weights. Some workouts will have both, like a well made Zumba workout or circuit training. Combining resistance training and cardio is a great way to do both at once. Jump squats, burpees, and mountain climbers can be added into your cardio routine. Crossfit and circuit training are other options. Depending on your level of fitness, it's perfectly OK to start with just one type of exercise. You might want to start by just walking, or a 15 minute strength workout you found on YouTube. Aim for a well balanced workout, but start wherever works for you. Life can get hectic, and you probably have a lot going on in your day. You plan meetings for work, doctors' appointments, and even lunch with your friends, so make working out a priority by scheduling time for your workout. Working out doesn't have to take a lot of time out of your day. Schedule 20 minutes into your day 10 minutes for a high-intensity workout, and 10 minutes for a quick shower. One way to motivate yourself to work out is to put your money on the line. If you sign up for a class you have to pay for even if you don't attend, you'll find yourself feeling more inclined to show up. Fitness classes are also a great way to find a supportive community, and you get the benefit of a trainer who can critique your form. Look for fitness classes that combine cardio and resistance training. Circuit classes and Crossfit may be good options. Depending on your interests, you could try yoga classes, spin class, kickboxing, or dance lessons. Don't try to force yourself to work out for an hour the very first time you exercise. Instead, start with small goals that you feel are manageable, like doing 10 jumping jacks and 10 push-ups. The next day, try to increase the number to 15 of each, and add in 10 squats. Spending 20 minutes on the treadmill might seem intimidating if you're out of breath 2 minutes in. Instead of focusing on the big picture, tell yourself you can make it to 3 minutes, then 5, then 7. If you need to, slow your pace during the workout so you can keep going and meet your goals.

How's school going?" or "Hi! It's been a long time since we've talked. I was wondering how you've been." They're probably going to be surprised that you're reaching out to them since you've been enemies in the past. That means they may feel nervous about meeting up with you. Pick a place where neither of you have strong ties so that you can both feel like equals. For example, you might ask them to meet with you at a local coffee house that just opened. However, it might be best to avoid asking them to meet you at your lunch table or at your home. Say, "Want to grab a cup of coffee at Good Beans?" or "I'm going to feed the ducks at the park. Wanna come?" At first, they might be suspicious about why you're reaching out to them. Think about how you'd feel if they suddenly started talking to you. Let them know that you want to make up. Additionally, show them you're interested in a real friendship by telling them why you're reaching out. You could say, "I know things have been rocky between us, but I don't like that. I'd much rather us be friends," or "We've had some conflicts in the past, but I think we have a lot in common. Maybe we could try being friends." While you and your enemy may have differences, you likely have some things in common. Talk to them to learn more about them. Then, find common interests that unite you. For example, you might both enjoy playing soccer, you may both like being creative, or you might both like the same TV show. Having mutual friends will help you and your enemy become better friends. Reach out to their friend group and invite them to do a group activity. You can do this before or after you reach out to your enemy to open the lines of communication. For instance, you might host a game night at your home, or you could make plans to see a movie as a group.
