Beginner Jogging: Free jogging tips plus Coach Carvey says "begin jogging today to get the health benefits of jogging!"

"I like how Coach Carvey emphasizes listening to your body and that progression must be gradual and gentle".

~Maureen Parker~national record holder and coach~

Start Jogging

You have been walking like you're in a hurry every other day for 4-6 weeks and nothin' hurts, excellent! Go here to reinforce why you should start a jogging program, and to see what a couch potatoe looks like.

Now mix in 100 yard slow jogs during your walks. Jog a hundred yards or between those 2 telephone poles and then walk at least another 100 yards or more before jogging again.

Wait until you feel recovered and then jog slowly again for 100 yards or 20 seconds or between the telephone poles.

Don't push yourself... yet, you are beginner jogging.

Remember the English nanny whispering to you. " Wake up... wake up little flabby muscles." Do this for 2 weeks, or however long it takes you to feel comfortable,(but not too comfortable)to start jogging longer distances.

Just keep increasing the distance of the jogs and lessen the distance of the walking, until you can jog the entire distance.
