The best way to get into the mood for jogging is befriending a person that jogs frequently and loves it. The stories and experiences a person hooked on jogging will share with you will open your appetite for jogging.
If you have never jogged I will give you a 3 month plan to help you have fun and lose weight at the same time. First you have to invest your chocolate money on a good pair of running shoes. That way you will get rid of your sweets that keep you fat and you are ready to start jogging.
Here is a 3 month plan to help you get started jogging:
First Month Objective: being able to run for 20 minutes. 2-3 times a week go jogging for 20 minutes, alternating running with walking. Run until you get a little tired then slow down. When you feel you can run again start running. This is the schedule for your first month of jogging.
The Second Month Objective: jogging for 20-30 minutes running all the time without a break. Twice a week go jogging for 20 minutes running without stopping to catch your breath. Find your own running rhythm and run at a speed that feels comfortable to you. After each jogging session massage the muscles you feel have been exerted the most. Also increase your jogging time form 20 to 30 minutes. Adding 2-3 minutes every week will get you running non-stop for 30 minutes by the end of the month
The Third Month Objective: increasing your jogging time form 30 to 40 minutes. Warm up for 10 minutes doing stretching exercises. You should always warm up before jogging. Then start running at a pace you can keep until the end of the jogging workout. Gradually during the month increase the time you spend jogging from 30 to 40 minutes. At the end of each jogging run drink a big glass of water or even better milk. Milk burns fat: get fit drinking more milk.
