It’s not easy staying motivated – particularly exercise. What does your approach say about you?
Joey prides himself on getting up at 5am to get in a training run before going to work, while Leah relies on her smartphone to prod her to get in a walk in the evening. Marcy loves to see numbers, so she uses a pedometer and tracks her progress in a log each day. And Ian meets up with a buddy at the gym to get in his workout three days a week. Each of them has figured out a way to stick with their exercise routine and stay motivated.
Are you too self-conscious to exercise outdoors? Stay inside!
The research is in. According to a new study released from MIND, a UK mental health organization, 90% of women over the age of 30 are uncomfortable exercising outside.
Eliminate the "I can't" mentality and you WILL accomplish all your goals!
2012 is the year for you to gain control over your perceived obstacles and excuses!
Don't ever say you can't, because you can. You can always make it happen at the eleventh hour, just before the buzzer or when your back is against the wall. For most people, pressure is what pushes us through resistance, mental blocks and mediocrity. Although this is normal human behavior, it also means that you CAN do better. You CAN gain control over your time management, stress levels, perceived obstacles and excuses.
Resolutions lead to disappointment. Here's a better way to make changes you will keep and love.
Today on New Years millions of people are making their resolutions. Few will succeed, and the rest will be disappointed with themselves. Not a great way to start the year.
Why is it so hard to exercise regularly, and what works to become someone who really enjoys it?
You know you should exercise, and you may even like the idea of it. Yet once you start doing it, your ability to stick with it disappears within weeks or even days.
It is not uncommon to struggle with exercising regularly, and most people think it is a simple matter of having enough willpower to force themselves to go to the gym three to four days a week. That can work under the right circumstances, but willpower is not enough to sustain long-term exercising, and all but a few will give up within weeks of trying.
