If you thought the above were aerobic activities, you are probably using some of the excuses listed below.  Come on...'fess up!

Excuses not to exercise:

  • I'm not in shape.  Now, how do you expect to get in shape?  Start small and work at your own pace.  But, do it.
  • I can't decide on which program to start--there are so many programs available.  Having many options is good!  You can try a few activities until you find one you like and will stick with.
  • I'm too old.  Not true!  You are never too old to start moving.  Come on...you have to start somewhere!
  • I have two left feet.  No problem.  You're not being graded!  We all have two left feet when learning something new.  Just try.  You'll get it!
  • I don't have time.  Do you have time to be sick?  (I didn't think so.)   Make time for exercise and you'll increase your fitness and minimize illness.  Wouldn't you rather do something fun that will maintain your health and give you more energy rather than procrastinate and struggle to regain your health?
  • It's too expensive.  You can jog or walk for free.  You don't need an expensive membership at an exclusive gym.   Jacki's classes are reasonably priced.
  • Exercise is boring.  If this is your attitude, you haven't yet found the program that's right for you.  Find a program you like and stick with it.  Choose one you can do in any kind of weather.  Of course, Jacki's programs are creative, imaginative and challenging, and never boring.
  • I don't know how--everyone else in class will be so much better.  You have to start somewhere!  At Jacki's, we welcome new students.  Come and have fun with us!
  • I'm healthy.  I don't need to exercise.  Studies show that you need to work out at least three times per week with an elevated heart rate.  Jacki's programs give you that plus work all your muscles to achieve a firm, lean body.

Top three reasons to exercise:

Our programs are so much fun, you'll forget you're exercising.  Jacki's classes whisper exercise and shout fun!  You'll enjoy yourself while receiving a full workout including cardiovascular and strength training. 

We have many long-time students (15+ years) who discovered Jacki's is the program one can happily use to make a commitment to exercise.  Every session is an all-new, exciting adventure!

Forget all your excuses and try a Jacki's class today!
