Becoming a Jogger

There are many positive things about coming a jogger, which is in any case a wonderful way to spend your free time. 
A study in Denmark shows that joggers are more likely to live to higher age- to not die prematurely- than other people. The horror stories about joggers dropping dead at the age of, say, 50, are just urban myths that are perpetrated by those afraid of physical exertion. But since you attend SparksGym, that cannot be the case! Joggers often lose several pounds a month just by going running once in a while. It doesn't take any kind of  power food- just going jogging for a few minutes each day does the trick! Added to this is the advantage of the fact that when you run to the bus stop, you won't get red in the face like most of those inferior non-joggers. This is always an advantage. 
Joggers have to be very good at discipline. Going out every day, even for a few minutes, can be tough. But the discipline is very good for a person's mentality. There is no need to go quickly: it can even be at a brisk walking pace. It's best for you if you're going at a pace that allows you to chat with people. This means that you are doing something that's good for you both mentally and physically.
If you would like to become a jogger, there are a few simple steps. First, you need to go running on a treadmill, at a very mild pace, for two minutes. This should be repeated every day, adding a few seconds to the time. If you feel you are ready, you can take the plunge and go for fifteen or twenty minutes- but this should only be attempted after you have been jogging for at least two weeks. Once you can go for longer periods of time- the aforementioned fifteen to twenty minutes- then you can go jogging outside, in a park or on a bicycle path. Voila! After a few months, you will feel fit and fresh, all thanks to jogging!
