Making a plan 

WRITING IF-THEN STATEMENTS

Sometimes we have the same barrier coming up again and again. It can be helpful to use If-Then Statements to help you develop a plan to overcome this barrier.

Here are some examples of If-Then Statements: 

• If I am tired after work, I will start biking at a low intensity and increase the intensity as I feel better. 

• If I am home late, I will do a short walk (10 minutes) instead of a full 30 minutes.

• If I am unable to go outside because of weather, I will do an exercise routine (an exercise video) inside instead of going outside. 

• If I am responsible for childcare duties, I will involve my son in my exercise routine. 

WORKOUT OF THE WEEK: 

If you are feeling up to it, try this 25 minute high intensity training workout. High intensity training alternates between short high intensity bouts of activity followed by a rest period. This is a great way fit a solid workout in when you are stressed for time.

We set goals and made a plan, but are they working? Next lesson covers how to evaluate your goals and how to make adjustments to be even more successful going forward.
