4Do 5 Minutes Several Times Per Day
It is sometimes hard to find a full hour to workout. Take several small breaks during the day and do a 5 minute workout.

5Just Get Started
That is the hardest part. Once you start you tend to finish. If you tell yourself "just 5 minutes" it makes it easier to start.

6The Five Minute Rule
This is an old tip. I learned it in "College Success" class my Freshman year. To get over procrastinating, just do 5 minutes. For studying, working out or anything else. Just start. Once you start you procrastinate stopping. Just changing state is the hard part.
