Christopher Schwarzenegger Shares Simple, Powerful Fitness Advice
“My advice to beginners is really simple: begin. And then don’t stop until it is a routine,” he told Men’s Health in February. “For a lot of people, that first step is the hardest. So find something, anything, you can do.”
“If you have been completely sedentary, go on a 30-minute walk,” he continued. “If you walk all the time and you have never done any strength training, you don’t need equipment: do 5 pushups, then do 5 squats. If your heart’s beating fast, rest for a minute. Now do 4 pushups and 4 squats. Rest if you need to. Then do 3 pushups and 3 squats. Then 2 and 2, then 1 and 1. You just did 15 pushups and 15 squats. If it was easy, start at 10 next time.”

Adding to the advice, Christopher said, “Once you begin, the key is keeping your momentum. That’s why I encourage everyone to set goals they can achieve when they’re just starting out. Train 10 minutes every day for a month. Then make it 15 minutes. Motivation is fleeting, but routine is what carries you on. You need to make this a routine. Do whatever you can do every day for a month, and then build on that.”
