It’s especially important when it comes to exercise, getting fit, getting healthy or losing weight. … A fitness professional who motivates their clients will always get them to consistently perform better. Ultimately helping them reach their desired goals.
Motivation does that, and it’s not about just powering through.
Below are the TOP 10 Exercise Motivations that you can use:
1. Lighten Up Your Goals
Your fitness goal may be too big for you right now, especially if you’re new to exercise.
So don’t start off trying to work out an hour every day. Instead, set more reasonable, achievable goals, like exercising 20 to 30 minutes two or three times a week.
2. Track Your Progress
Chart your workouts, whether you do it online or in an old-school fitness journal. Seeing improvements, whether running faster, doing more reps, or working out more often, makes you want to keep going.
3. Delete Guilt
Get real. You’re going to miss a day or two. If you accept that there will be some side steps on your fitness journey, you’ll be better prepared mentally to deal with setbacks.
Don’t let a misstep be an excuse for giving up.
4. Focus Only On Yourself
There will always be someone fitter, faster, or more flexible than you.
6. Find the Fun in It
If you can’t get motivated, maybe you’re doing the wrong activity. Or you used to like it, and now it’s gotten stale. Pick activities you like the most, and they become something to look forward to. Remember, exercise does not have to happen in a gym. Maybe you’d rather go hiking or horseback riding, do a charity run or walk, or dance.
7. Break It Up
Talk yourself into exercising for a few minutes. You may want to keep going. If not, you can do a couple more mini-sessions during the day, instead of one long workout.
8. Make It Convenient
When you’re busy, don’t spend 30 minutes driving to a gym. Use online exercise videos instead. If you’re too tired to work out at the end of the day, set your alarm a little earlier and exercise in the morning.
9. Forget the Past
So maybe you weren’t the most athletic kid in high school and were the last chosen for class games. That was years ago. Your goal now is not to be picked first or make the team. You want to exercise to stay healthy and enjoy your life.
10. Reward Yourself
Treat yourself for working out.
