But in reality, he said it may be more helpful to start small. <\/p>\n More Tallahassee news:<\/b><\/p>\n \u201cYou\u2019ve got to crawl before you can walk. Slow progress is still progress,\u201d the trainer said. \u201cIf you are a beginner and you want to enter the gym, don\u2019t go in the gym and try to lift heavy weight. Start off lightweight. Don\u2019t go in the gym trying to run on the treadmill. Start walking first.\u201d<\/p>\n A person\u2019s diet is even more critical than exercise, Frazier said. \u201cEating is the 80 percent. Working out is the 20,\u201d he said. \u201cIf you\u2019re really trying to reach those results, you actually want to start eating healthier \u2013 eating more vegetables, eating more fruit, eating more lean meat if you do eat meat. Keep a balanced diet and plenty of water.\u201d <\/p>\n Frazier also encouraged people to avoid constantly chasing the latest fitness trend on social media. \u201cYou always want to stick to a plan.
