is one of the most-reported
most-reporte barriers to exercise. It only makes sense for us to get bored when we do the same exercise day
after day. Doing different exercises, or changing the routine, substantially increases the likelihood of sticking with a consistent March 11th
exercise program. Repetitive movements done frequently and without adequate recovery can lead to overuse injuries such as Cardio Disease Lecture 7:00pm
tendonitis, pulled muscles, and bursitis. These types of problems can substantially limit, or totally prevent, exercise performance. March 12th
