Before you can become truly fit, you need a workout plan that fits who you are. Only then can that plan help you become who you want to be: the new you.
As you read through this list, check out the details for each plan regarding duration, fitness level, goal, workouts per week, and equipment needed. That information offers a first-glance indication if a plan is right for you and your life. Far too often, people start an ambitious plan that is right for someone else, but totally unfeasible for them. They start out hopeful, but end up discouraged. Their only mistake was choosing the wrong plan!
Once you've narrowed your selection to a final few plans, watch their promo videos, read the sample workouts, and check out the plan's main page. This is where the intangibles kick in. Does the program's coach seem like he or she is talking directly to you? Does it feel like the plan is something you're willing to commit to—even when it gets tough to keep going?
An old lifting adage says the best workout is the one that makes you go back for another workout. Likewise, the best workout plan for you is the one you will successfully complete!
