If you have a goal to exercise every day, a workout timetable can be a helpful tool to make this happen. It is simply a chart of your personal fitness plan. This timetable has everything you are committed to doing in a week, mapped day wise.
Making a difference
A workout timetable helps create a routine, ensures regular physical activity, and promotes discipline. By mixing up cardio, strength training, yoga, and a rest day, you create a well-rounded timetable. Saurabh Bothra, CEO & certified Yoga instructor, Habuild, says, “As for its impact, the effectiveness varies. The secret words are ‘commitment’ and ‘customisation’. If you are committed to the workout plan, the timetable will work. But if you set unrealistic goals with a larger-than-life workout timetable, it won’t work. So, everyone needs to customise their timetable in the way that ‘fits’ their stage of growth. With that said, a timetable does help us get the best out of our exercises and keeping tabs on the areas we target. Since our muscles need rest to grow stronger, ideally, a workout timetable should include training for every muscle group during the week. This balance ensures adequate recovery and variety in the journey.”
Being effective
Do it right
Aim and shoot
To achieve fitness goals efficiently, having a workout timetable is key. It outlines exercises, intensity, frequency, rest, and progression, streamlining your sessions and guiding you toward success.
“A well-designed workout timetable aligns with an individual’s fitness goals, lifestyle, workout preferences, strengths, and weaknesses. This approach helps them follow the timetable with ease while ensuring that the workouts are purposeful and targeted.
Having a clear plan at hand reduces the chances of skipping workouts. It helps people proceed with their daily workout sessions with confidence and enhances the overall mental well-being associated with the fitness journey. When you have a workout timetable in hand, you don’t have to think of exercises or plan anything when you are working out. With a flow of exercise, intensity, and reps marked beforehand, one can easily follow and complete a workout session with ease. This helps them workout daily and achieve their daily workout goals,” says Miten Kakaiya fitness coach, and founder of Miten Says Fitness. So, go ahead and make a workout timetable —follow these simple rules and make your workout count.
