This recent article reminds us that, in January, there is a lot of zeal for getting back into exercise and regaining fitness. However, that zeal often lacks staying power.

"Sadly, most people become frustrated and quit exercising before they see any real results. But it's not surprising given the common mistakes many people make with their training programs. Are you making these workout mistakes?" - Elizabeth Quinn

Nia is a great choice to help avoid many of these common exercise pitfalls. Nia routines are designed to give a whole body workout. Fresh routines are introduced on a regular basis to keep things interesting and to insure a fully diversified workout. Attending a Nia class is a good way to avoid the mistake of pursuing a haphazard approach to working out and provides access to a Nia instructor who can help with proper form and technique.

But, perhaps the best contribution that Nia made to the fitness scene was redirecting the focus from objective measurements, like body weight and muscle size, to the subjective experience of how to enhance the way a workout makes us feel. Finding satisfaction in the feelings that come from a good workout naturally dispells workout frustrations - no matter what the scale, tape or mirror may indicate - and makes it more likely you'll find time for it and still be working out come December.

If your current exercise program isn't doing it for you, give Nia a try and experience the Nia difference for yourself.
