  • Make a plan - make a fitness plan as this will allow you to achieve better results than a random workout. Roberts has advised that "exercise and diet all revolve around having a plan of what to do".
  • Find a nutritional or fitness coach - a fitness or nutritional coach can aid in your fitness journey by taking all of the thinking out of exercising.
  • Check in your progress - plan for check ins with your fitness coaches during your fitness journey. If you are unable to do check-ins always ensure you update your plans.
