- At this point the less you spend the better.
- We very often feel that we are achieving something by spending money when all we are achieving is emptying our bank accounts.
- You do need some equipment you can put together with things you already know, however.
- It can be helpful to have some workout suitable music, comfortable footwear and handy things like a timer (you can get a free app) and a water bottle.

6. Get a detailed plan
It has to be as clear and as detailed as humanly possible.
It'll be hard enough to stick to any kind of routine if you are not used to exercise and dietary restrictions.
Ideally you want something that'll give you day-by-day instructions and if you don't have it read...

That’s about how long it takes to build a habit - roughly a month. And if you can stick to something for as long as that the chances are you’ll get into a routine of making better choices naturally and without thinking about it later on.

4. Shop in advance, shop smart
What you eat is just as important as what you do exercise wise. Most us know how easy it is to fall off track when you get hungry after a workout and you think: well I deserve a treat since I worked for it.

1. Start small
What you really need is to change your habits, and how you feel and look will change on their own. The moment you concentrate on the action and not on the end result is when you truly transform, inside and out.
