Tim : 5 Ways to Motivate yourself to exercise!

5 Ways to Motivate yourself to Exercise



1)Think about how awful you will feel if you don’t!!!!
Once you start exercising, you will experience the release of endorphins in your body which give you a natural high! How do you want to feel today? Yukky or energized?This endorphin release is the body form of a pill that natural, Not man made! ITS FREE:)))

2)Use visualization!!!!
Visualize how you! Are going to look once you reach your goal of losing that 10- 20 pds or getting rock hard abs.!!! Picture yourself running for 20 minutes and imagine how good you will feel. If you can only do 10 pushups and you want to do 15, start visualizing yourself doing 15 pushups. Picture yourself doing them and count each one in your mind. Visualization is used by many top athletes to get them past performance plateaus.

3)Make exercise a exciting and fun experiencing!!!!

Find an activity that is fun to do. Ex. Walking,Hiking, biking.. Sign up for a 5K race you will have a certain date that you have to be ready to run or walk the race. This will give you a reason to train for something.Even a bike club Make it FUN!!!

4)Workout with a Friend or Trainer!!!!

Find a workout buddy that can help you stay accountable. If not hire professional so you can proceed with discipline,motivation and accountability towards your goal!


5)Think long term health benefits!!!!
As I mentioned in my previous point, physical appearance is a huge motivating factor, but your health should be an even bigger one. The thing with health, is that we do not “see” it. As we becoming more and more concerned with being healthy and living a better quality of life as they get older. Use this to your advantage as well to motivate yourself to exercise. The list of health benefits that exercising provides you with is just enormous. By thinking about maintaining a high quality of life for years to come, you are thinking long term and thus you can find the proper amount of motivation to stay active even during times that you feel like giving up. We all want to be healthy, and going through health concerns brings about much stress to our life as well as to those that we love. ........When I hear of fathers or grandparents that are changing their lifestyle and becoming more active to be around to see their children grow up, I am so proud of them. That’s one of the strongest motivation you could ever have to turn your life around with exercise!!!

Hope you got motivated:)))
