Try these 16 awesome songs that will encourage you to stick to your fitness resolutions

To get your tush in gear, and to ensure you stick with to your new, healthy goals all year long,  you'll need a few things. First, craft a realistic plan of attack. If you haven't run for a very long time, don't expect to reach your teenage pace on your first loop around the track. Start out small -- just 60 seconds of exercise can benefit your health so every effort no matter how little counts.
