It's easy to talk yourself out of exercising. Even when you have the best intentions to work out, excuses are so easy to find — "I'm too tired", "I'm busy" or "The weather is bad". Don't worry!
※ Take baby steps.
You'll never try to run 10 miles just in a single day, right? When you do too much too soon, you'll end up injured and discouraged. Take it easy as you get stated. Maybe you only run a quarter of a mile during your first week.
※ Show the clock who is boss.
Health experts say that you should aim for at least 150 minutes of exercise a week, plus weight training at least twice a week. If you work too late to get to a gym, keep a set of weights at home. If you can't do 30 minutes at once, break it up into 10 or 15 minutes' sections.
※
Your workout should be just as much a habit as brushing your teeth or eating breakfast. When it's part of your routine, you won't even have to think about it. In a few months, fitness can be regular in your day.
※ Keep it real.
You're not going to shake off 30 pounds in a week. Gradually, you should increase your workout schedule from 2 to 3 days a week, or exercise for 15more minutes each time.
※Celebrate.
It takes weeks to see real changes. Therefore, even a pound of weight loss or a pound of muscle gain is the reason to reward yourself.
