Tip: Keep your rpms under 110 and above 80 to optimize your bicycling experience. The faster you ride the less strain your knees will be under.

It is very important to keep challenging yourself with new goals. If you can easily meet your weekly or monthly goals, it is time to raise the bar. Plan on losing more weight than usual or building more muscle mass. You could also give yourself shorter deadlines for the same goals. You will have to make changes to your workout routines to meet your new goals or look for ways to make your fitness program more efficient. Consider hiring a personal trainer to help you improve your fitness program if you are not sure what to do.

Tip: If you are working out with a padded bench then be sure to check the quality of the padding before you begin. You can do this by pressing on the cushion to assess its ability to support you.

Make your fitness program more interesting by adding some new activities to your usual routines. You can keep adding new exercises to challenge yourself but your fitness program will be more interesting if you are having fun or acquiring new skills. Join a gym and sign up for the different classes they offer to learn a martial art, practice some aerobic exercises or learn how to dance. You can also learn a new activity by yourself at home if you have access to quality tutorials.

Tip: Do not bounce when stretching. This usually puts undo strain on your muscles.

If you enjoy competition, find out about local clubs or teams you can join. You could for instance join a softball league to work on your cardio while having fun and competing. Fighting sports are another good option you should explore; it will be easier to stay motivated and workout regularly if you are training for a fight. If there are few options in your area, talk to the people at your local gym to see if they would be interested in starting a league or meeting for friendly football games once in a while.

Tip: Bring your pet along with you when you work out. Pets need to stay active, too.

Find people who have a similar fitness program and work out with them. You should be able to make new friends at your local gym but you should not hesitate to ask neighbors and even colleagues if they work out. Find people who enjoy the same activities as you and plan on working out together at least once a week. Working out with someone else will allow you to try some new exercises, such as sparring if you practice a martial art or lifting heavier weights while having someone secure the weights for you if you want to build muscle mass. Find someone you get along with and ask if they would like to engage in a friendly competition to see who can lose the most weight or build the most muscle mass if competition helps you stay motivated.

These tips will help you improve your fitness program and get better results. You should apply them one at a time to see how efficient these different changes really are.
