My plan to stay healthy over the summer

My Plan to Remain Healthy
The importance of staying physically fit is on the rise. With the easy access to unhealthy fast food and the growing technology many people are becoming unhealthy. This is my personal wellness plan and I plan on following it. The main goal of my plan is to go to the gym and workout for at 30 minutes a day five times a week. The reason why I have decided to change my normal behaviors is because I realize that with the heart problems in my family I need to remain as healthy as possible.
Working out a minimum of 30 minutes a day five times a week will keep me in shape. If I don’t follow through with my plan then health problems will arise. My dad has already had three heart attacks and nine stents, so I probably don’t have the healthiest heart. If I don’t follow this wellness plan my heart will definitely be unhealthy and my risk of having a heart attack will increase. Not only will my risk of heart failure increase, but I will be at a greater risk for diabetes and obesity.
However if I follow through with my personal wellness plan there will be benefits. Benefits such as being more active, having more endurance, strength, less chance of heart problems, and an overall better life. These benefits will help me live a better healthier life.
I have thought out three different strategies to help out with my wellness plan. The first strategy is to increase my max volume of oxygen by running every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for 20 minutes. This should increase my max V02 levels allowing more oxygen into my blood and muscles. After this has been done for several weeks I will start my second strategy which is to start lifting weights for 30 minutes a day followed by a short 10 minute jog. This should bulk me up fast. My last strategy is to slowly increase the weight that I lift and make sure Im always doing my max.
This personal wellness plan will not be the easiest thing to accomplish. There will be several obstacles in the way. Lack of time will be a huge problem which is why im going to get my workout done and out of the way before classes in the morning. Another obstacle is actually getting to the gym and doing it. For this problem I am going to workout with a friend. Having a friend to workout with makes it easier to go. The last obstacle I will run into is getting up early enough before classes. To do this I’m just going to have to do it and become accustomed to waking up an hour earlier.

I believe that this personal wellness plan will be a good thing for my overall health. I will be healthier and live a better life. This will help me remain more active and awake for all my classes and the rest of the day ahead of me. To keep myself focused on this personal wellness plan I will have a reward for myself. After each month of not missing a day I will buy myself something that I want.
