How to Find Time for Workouts

Expert strategies for fitting in fitness—and keeping the weight loss coming.

One tough thing about a major body makeover is finding the motivation and time to work out. AJ Cook is no exception. “With adjusting to being a new mom, working on TV, and sitting for hours in L.A. traffic, my schedule is tight,” she says.

So we turned to Feel Great Weight Dream Team fitness expert Keli Roberts for real-world strategies on fitting fitness into even the nuttiest of schedules.

Finding time for my workouts has been one of my biggest challenges. What’s helped is having accountability to my trainer—if I cancel, I know I’ll be letting him down, too. I also picked a gym near my home, so I can get there quickly.

Plus, I try to squeeze in little workouts whenever and wherever I can, whether it’s doing some toning in my trailer during a break on set or pushing Mekhai in his stroller on my day off.”

    For great arms or great anything get yourself a trainer. Even if it is just a few sessions. You will learn so much and you can do the workouts on your own. I trained with my trainer twice a week for 4 years. Never regretted one minute of it!

    I think motivation is the key. “Lack of time” is just an excuse. If our health is important to us finding time to exercise is necessary.
