They say that the hardest step of any journey is the first one, and when it comes to fitness and exercise, that saying rings truer than ever.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re looking to drop those last few stubborn pounds you’ve been holding since the Holidays three years ago, to improve your fitness levels slightly, or to transform your body and get bigger and jacked beyond belief, the hardest part of any new regime is getting started.

If you’re looking for new and exciting ways to get in shape, it might be worth considering switching your training up and trying something new.

Despite the Holidays being a fair deal away yet, before you know it it’ll be time to defrost the turkey, break out the stuffing, stock up on Christmas pudding, heavy cream, custard, and other sweet and calorific treats, only to find by the New Year that you’re heavier than ever before.
