How to motivate yourself?
Every beginning is hard so do not give up. Here are few tips on how to motivate yourself to exercise.
- Try different kinds of exercise. You must find out which type of exercise you enjoy the most.
- Set days, hours and the type of exercise. This way it will be easier to coordinate your exercise with other obligations.
- Start slowly. Choose your own pace and intensity and do not compare yourself to others.
- Take care of the suitable equipment. This is the only way that you will enjoy exercising.
- Find and write a motivational quote and put it somewhere in your room where you can see it all the time.
- Set realistic goals. Do not set goals that are too high in the beginning but do that gradually. Goals should be effective, measurable and set with a date.
- Think about the results that regular exercise will bring. Apart from feeling good, having a toned body, better condition, more energy, you will also have better health.
- Buy a sports watch and keep track of time, intensity, amount of exercise, burned calories and your progress. Over time you will notice progress and this will give you motivation to continue.
- Listen to your favorite music, which will make you feel good. By listening to music you will also lose track of time and therefore will not hate exercising.
- Get an exercise buddy.
- Do not overreact and do not forget to rest.
