Tips on exercising regularly

Published by Punch on Wed, 16 Nov 2011


Make it a HabitRemove the thinking element. If you can make exercise a habit, then it becomes that much easier to go.Get a PartnerGet someone else to go to the gym with you. Pick someone who is committed to their health. Not only can you socialize with someone while youre there, but youll have a backup in case your motivation alone isnt enough to drag yourself out there.Tune Your Challenge LevelYour goal is to set a workout routine that is challenging, but not overwhelming. Challenge is key to enjoyment.Set GoalsNot weight-loss or muscle gain goals, but fitness goals. Set goals to beat your past records in distance ran, push-ups or chin-ups you can do, weight you can lift or degree you can stretch. Fitness goals make the gym a game where you strive to beat your previous high-score.Get Past Your Comfort ZoneSo what if you arent the most svelte or muscular person in the gym' Self-consciousness can be a big obstacle to enjoying your workout. The key is to get used to it. When you continue to show up, youll pay less attention to the people around you and more to your workout.ExperimentDont stick with the same routine. Mix it up and try different activities.MusicThis shouldnt come as a surprise, but music can enhance a workout.Short WorkoutsDont have time or enthusiasm to last an hour' Just go for twenty or thirty minutes. Shorter workouts can be better than longer ones if the intensity is higher and you become more focused as a result. After an hour or two of exercise your body starts to go into a state where more exercise can actually reduce physical improvements.www.lifehack.org
