PS: Now , After you have already run for a minute, it will sound ridiculous not doing one more.

The important thing is establishing the routine. Do not try too hard. If you do you will create pain and condition your body against it.

Unless you don't work like that. Maybe I'm weird, but if I promised myself "just one minute" and I trick myself into doing more minutes, I'm going to remember that next time I'll tell myself "just one minute". I might say "just one minute and then see how you feel". But again, there shouldn't be anything ridiculous about it if I just do one minute, because who is being ridiculous next time they say "just one minute" ?
