This is why I thought I would share with you some of the best ways to kick start your fitness journey today. Remember things like this tend to be a marathon, not a sprint. No pun intended!

1. Decide how you should do it, and then do it

It may sound crazy, but making an active decision on the best way for you to kick start your fitness journey is a positive step to getting on the right track.
.
Believe it or not, your thought process plays a big part in your motivation to do things. So if you are comfortable with a decision, you are more like to go through with it.
.
If fitness for you means going to a gym, then join one and get started. A quick look online will highlight your local fully equipped gym to help you get started.
.
If you prefer a particular type of exercise, or think you may get more enjoyment out of something a little more fun or different like zumba or swimming. In such a case, seek out local facilities or classes to help you kick start that journey for good.
.
Be confident in what makes you happy with giving things a go.

2. Have all the right gear so you feel prepared

.
It may sound crazy, but psychologically this can work. .
.
If you feel like you have all the right gear and feel prepared to take on the activity you want to do, then you are more likely to go through with it as your confidence is there to take you forward.
.
Often when it comes to developing new habits like exercising or increasing fitness levels, you really need to nurture your mindset as well.
.
You mind is a powerful tool, and the difference between being successful at something or giving up. Feeling like you are ready to go will help you to think positively about the activity, whatever that may be.

3. Be more active in your daily life

Finally, sometimes changing your whole lifestyle can help with your decisions to start exercising a little more.
.
For example, making conscious decisions to be more active in daily life will be helping your overall journey. .
.
Walking somewhere instead of driving. Taking the stairs instead of lifts. Even walking your dog daily are all positive lifestyle choices which can help you stay o track with your main focus.
