How to Stay Fit With Healthy Exercise

Step 1

Plan for healthy exercise in your schedule. Mentally prepare for your new exercise routine, and make a real commitment to fitting in a routine workout by blocking regular time in your planner for exercise.
Step 2

Decide which exercises you'll do regularly to stay fit, and get your gear ready. If you plan to take walks and swim, then gather your comfortable sneakers and a swimsuit.
Step 3

Make a true effort to get started. Once you've planned a regular workout schedule, stick to your schedule and just get started before you talk yourself out of it.
Step 4

Warm up and stretch before your exercise routine. Your warm-up can include walking or stretching exercises for at least 10 minutes.
Step 5

Start your workout. To stay fit with healthy exercise, do your planned exercise---such as walking, swimming or sports---for at least 25 to 30 minutes.
Step 6

Cool down from your exercise routine. Stretch your muscles for at least five minutes.
