Welcome to the 47th issue of the ABS Audio Newsletter. Today we are going to set the stage for embarkation on a fitness journey. As with most journeys, adequate preparation is key to maximize the opportunity of success. A fitness journey is no different. There are many prerequisites that we ought to ascertain prior to embarkation. Why is this? Because, we want to succeed, and this process is challenging.

• Arm yourself with the necessary knowledge needed on the trek

• Establish a structure/framework to guide your way

• Build a support system/requisition companions

• Be honest with yourself about the pitfalls and challenges that litter the path forward
