Always check with your doctor to make sure a 90-day fitness program will benefit your health and fitness level before beginning one.
The challenge
Although 90 days may seem like a very long time, it is a reasonable time limit to work within in order to see noticeable changes in your body.
A 90-day fitness challenge offers you time to adjust to new physical demands, measure your progress, and, perhaps, be inspired enough to continue being physically active even after the 90 days are over, as opposed to “get fit quick” schemes that promise to make your body beach-ready in 10 days.
Maintaining an active lifestyle should be a lifestyle change, not just a 90-day challenge.
Build Your Own Plan
Determining your fitness goals can give you more clarity into how to build your own 90-day workout plan. If weight loss is your ultimate goal, you’ll need to focus on building a cardio-intensive fitness plan that stresses burning calories.
According to Harvard Health Publications, including high-intensity interval training in your cardio workouts three to five days a week will also help you increase the intensity of your workouts and burn more calories faster.
Plan your workouts more in the direction of strength-building to develop larger muscles. For instance, dedicate the first day to your arms and back, the second to your abs and chest, and the third to your legs, hips, and buttocks. On the final three days, do cardio exercises like swimming, stair climbing, hill jogging, circuit training, or plyometrics that also help build muscle.
