Everyone begins working out with the intention of sticking to a regular routine. However, when there are household chores, family events or outing with friends, it can difficult to keep that momentum up.
Having said that, here are 5 tips that can help you work out regularly:
#1: Pick a Workout You Like
Just in case you don’t like Pilates, yoga or even weights, you don’t have to pick that workout. Instead, keep trying different types of exercise routines until you find what you like. Once you do find what you like, then half the battle is won, in terms of sticking to a workout routine.
#2: Exercise with Friends
Instead of working out alone, it’s a good idea to plan a group session whether it involves hiking, signing up for a fitness class or even just about any group activity that can set your pulse racing.
#3: Create a workout playlist
While there are a number of tried-and-tested gym tunes, getting a new playlist that is peppy can pump you up and excited to work out during your scheduled time. You can even plan a list out such as fast songs for cardio session and slow ones for when cooling down.
#4: Set clear goals
It doesn’t matter what the goal whether in yoga or running but set clear ones to show progress. Without a doubt, if you set these goals, you’ll find yourself motivated to achieve them – day in and out!
#5: Treat Yourself
If you’ve met your goals, then it’s time to treat yourself. This could be anything from a Netflix series that you’ve been meaning to watch or whatever floats your boat.
