So, you started that gym membership and have been less than active with your exercise routine and need a bit of motivation to get yourself to the gym each day. Here are several ideas to keep you on the path to looking and feeling better.
- Get Dressed for a Successful Workout – Find an outfit that you feel good in and comfortable.
- Get an Early Start – So many people are more productive in the morning and it’s good to get it out of the way.
- Set Goals for your Workout – They don’t have to be big goals at first but, it’s great to have something to strive for.
- Change Up Your Workouts – Don’t do the same stuff every time. Mix it up to keep it interesting.
- Build a Real Reward Into Your Workout – When you work out for all the days you plan to, gift yourself something special at the end of each week.
- Take a Break When You Need It – If your workouts are wearing you down, take a break — but define how long the break will be so you know when to come back.
- Work out with a friend who is a positive influence – Having a partner to work out with can be very motivating.
- Start at Your Own Pace – If you are starting, don’t be so hard on yourself and start at the pace you feel comfortable with.
- Reward yourself each day you workout – Do a little something special during your workout such as listening to music or watching your favorite show on an iPad or other device to keep your mind feeling good.
