Plan Description

If you're looking for a routine to go from barely active to jogging, then here's a plan to try for a month! Please consult with your doctor before starting especially if you have any heart issues, asthma, or bone & joint problems. This is a rough template; do not just push through if you experience pain during or after workouts. A healthy diet, low alcohol consumption, and good quality and quantity of sleep (7.5+ hrs) will help get you through this month. Reach out if you have any questions or concerns. Have fun!!
