PLAN FIXED TIME SLOTS
Short, predictable sessions (10-30 minutes) are easier to integrate into your daily routine than long workouts.
Do you finally want to work out regularly, but lose motivation after a few days or weeks? You're not alone. "The key to long-term training success is not extreme discipline, but a realistic, well-structured fitness routine," explains our fitness expert, Linda. In this article, we show you how to build a fitness routine step-by-step and stick to it consistently for at least 4 weeks. Start with the video and find out how to build up your
fitness routine in 4 weeks.
The first few weeks are the most critical if you want to build a new fitness habit," says Linda. "This phase determines whether exercise becomes an integral part of your everyday life – or whether it falls back into oblivion.
In the first 4 weeks, your body develops new movement patterns, your nervous system adapts to stress and motivation slowly turns into a habit.
It is completely normal for your motivation to fluctuate. Always remember: once you make it a habit, the routine will stick. That's exactly what this 4-week strategy is
designed for.
Many people start too ambitiously: too many training days, too long sessions and expectations are too high.
The result is excessive demands, time stress and frustration.
Linda knows how to do it better: "Make fewer plans and train regularly instead. A sustainable fitness routine doesn't mean doing everything perfectly, but sticking with it even if things don't go perfectly."
If you want to build a fitness routine, you should stick to three simple basic rules.

Helpful mental tricks are:
After a few weeks, exercise will no longer feel like a decision, but like a normal part of your day.
As a fitness expert, Linda knows exactly what it takes to build a long-term routine. That's why she has created a 4-week fitness routine plan to help you. "Use this structure as a guide – adapt it to your level," she adds:
You were in your routine and suddenly it's gone? Many people know this.
Here are some of the typical reasons and solutions:
"I missed a session."
No problem. Just carry on to the next appointment.
"I don't see any results yet."
Progress is first seen in your body image, not in the mirror.
"I have no motivation right now."
Training starts with exercise, not motivation.
Keeping at it doesn't mean being perfect – it means keeping going.
"If you want to build a fitness routine, don't think in extremes. Think in feasible steps, clear structures and realistic expectations," emphasizes Linda. With the right strategy, you can stick with it for 4 weeks – and beyond.
