When it comes to exercise, do you consider yourself motivated? If you are not currently exercising, are you motivated to increase your activity level?

Identify at least two barriers you currently face with regards to exercising regularly. If you are not facing any current barriers, identify at least two barriers you may face in the future.

Identify a possible solution to each of the barriers you identified above. What strategies can you employ to either overcome the current barriers you face or prevent the identified barriers in the future? The goal is to overcome barriers to either begin an exercise program or maintain your current exercise program.
