Sun In Capricorn Workout

The Sun enters Capricorn on December 21, on the same day as the Winter Solstice. We also welcome the New Year with the Sun in this sign, which seems fitting for new goals and resolutions as Capricorn is the sign of stability, ambition and goals. Think long-term, you should feel more motivated and grounded with a clearer picture of what direction to take.

Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, the most domineering planet of them all. Saturn’s capacity for discipline and responsibility makes the loftiest goals attainable. With a practical approach and a natural persistence, Capricorn can get things done.

When it comes to fitness and working out, Capricorns want to know they have accomplished something by the end of their sweat sesh, but they also understand that hard work pays off. Capricorn craves structure, discipline, stability and results. As Capricorn falls at the start of the new year, a slow and steady start is the best way to approach their fitness goals.

That is why for this Sun sign workout an eight week 5K training program is the perfect way to harness Cap’s energy. By setting a goal that requires discipline and persistence, as well as a visible finish line, willful determination will be rewarded. Capricorn knows things take time and that success will not be accomplished overnight.

I am a regular runner, and running is one of my favorite ways to get outdoors and feel free (hello Sagittarius). This training plan is for someone who is just starting out, so however you want to incorporate this into your current fitness program is at your own will. It is highly recommended you speak with your licensed physician before you begin any new workout plan. Address any of your concerns with a medically licensed professional, and if you have any injuries or limitations, discuss an alternative.

To begin, use this link to find a 5K near you, at least 8 weeks out. Know that most races require a race fee. Invest in a good pair of running shoes, too. Also, don’t push yourself past what you know your body is capable of. Run at a pace that you are comfortable with; this pace is different for everyone. Walk when you need to. And if the weather permits, get outside! You can also start on a treadmill. What matters is the most is that you just get started.
