If you haven't exercised in a while, try starting with something you truly enjoy doing. If you have been exercising and are bored with your current routine, switch it up a bit. If you've been working with weights, change the number of sets and reps or add a few different exercises. If doing cardio, change the duration of the activity or intensity or just completely try a new exercise routine altogether. Sometimes having an workout partner helps to keep one motivated as well.

all the above ideas are good. start walking or jogging. take up an individual or team sport. and get some cool videos that are fun to watch:
a video or DVD of workouts:
Denise Austin, assorted
Jillian Michaels: No More Trouble Zones DVD
Dance off the Inches: Hip Hop Party DVD
Women's Health: The Wedding Workout
Everlast Boxing Workout Video DVD
Workout: Starring Jane Fonda, original 1982
Mousercise, Mickey Mouse (oldie but goodie!)
