BREAK THE OLD HABITS
We all know
exercise is
good for us. It
helps control
blood pres-
sure, cho-
lesterol, and
blood sugar.
Exercise
makes our
heart stronger and more efficient.
Exercise helps maintain, or improve,
muscle strength and bone density.
And, exercise helps to control body
weight. It’s a great tool for prevent-
ing disease and maintaining good
health along with helping maintain
independence with age. As a result,
we faithfully and habitually take our
daily walk, spend time on the tread-
mill, and/or lift weights. However, we
may not be providing ourselves with
the MAXIMAL benefits for all our
efforts.
Our bodies are “stimulus-response”
mechanisms. What’s more, the
body is basically lazy. The heart, the

muscles and all the other body parts
will respond (get stronger and more
fit) to the stimulus of exercise. And,
the response (fitness) is exactly the
amount needed-no more, no less.
The results of our consistent, daily
exercise go only so far when we do
the same exercise, for the same
amount of time, at the same effort
level without any variation. The body
will get only so much benefit from,
and respond only so much to, the
same stimulus. By providing new and
different stimulus, changing exercise
habits can lead to additional fitness
gains and benefits.
The same exercise over and over can
also lead to boredom and/or repeti-
tive stress injuries. Boredom is one
of the most-reported barriers to exer-
cise. It only makes sense for us to get
bored when we do the same exercise
day after day. Doing different ex-
ercise, or periodically changing the
routine, substantially increases the
likelihood of sticking with a consis-
tent exercise program. Also, repeti-

tive movements done frequently and
without adequate recovery can lead
to overuse injuries such as tendonitis,
pulled muscles, and bursitis. These
types of problems can substantially
limit, or totally prevent, exercise per-
formance. Exercise variety prevents
one particular part of the body from
repeatedly undergoing the same
movement or experiencing the same
stress.
So, instead of that five days per week
on the treadmill at the same speed
for the same amount of time, try ten
or fifteen minutes on the stationary
bike or the elliptical trainer. Instead
of the same weight machine exercis-
es for the shoulder or back muscles,
try using some of the free weight
equipment or challenge yourself with
body weight exercises. Consistently
changing the exercise habits keeps
the body continually challenged,
minimizes risk of repetitive stress
injuries, and prevents boredom.
