How to Create a Workout Plan and Schedule

If your workout routine feels inconsistent, overwhelming, or impossible to stick to—you’re not alone. In this episode of Meet Your Body, Jessica Valant breaks down how to create a workout schedule that actually works for your life, goals, time available and your health. Instead of chasing perfection or rigid plans, you’ll learn how to build a simple, sustainable routine that supports your energy, hormones, and goals—especially in midlife. Jessica shares practical strategies for balancing strength training, mobility, cardio, and rest, while helping you let go of all-or-nothing thinking. Whether you’re just getting started or trying to stay consistent through a busy season, this episode will help you simplify your approach, stay motivated, and create a plan you can truly stick with.
