Everyone needs to get a push one way or another when facing a fitness program. The thing is that your fitness program has to fit you, and you alone. Someone else’s motivation is not going to get you going, it just does not work that way!
• Be aware of the benefits. Are you looking to trim inches off your waist? Are you looking to fit into a special dress? Those are the benefits. Some should be long range, and some short range.
• Do not be afraid of making yourself a list. Write down each and every benefit that you can think of. Some may even be silly, but the point is that the list will be handy for you if at any time you wish to slack off on your fitness program.
• Exercise with a friend. “Misery loves company” is a great saying, and sometimes you will feel miserable or your friend will, and you can both help each other out and encourage each other.
• Being able to travel, or go visit friends motivates some people. If that’s the case for you, take a picture off the Internet or out of your scrapbook and put that picture where you will see it every morning. Humans love to reward themselves, and this will work well for you.
• Always make exercising as pleasant as possible. If that takes a CD player to listen to books while walking, or playing your favorite classical music, then that’s what you should do. If Mother Nature is your friend then exercise in local and Stat parks.
• Wear good shoes and the proper exercise clothing. If you need special shoes, please do not hesitate to invest in some. Your feet will thank you as the rest of your body will.
• Someone who is in the know may be telling you that you need to exercise, such as your Doctor or a loved one. Loved ones are a tremendous motivator at times, for your desire to spend your “old age” with them may have made you spring to action.
• It’s truly unfortunate, but you may know someone who has died recently because they were out of shape and such. Seeing yourself in that condition may just give you the motivation to begin a fitness program.
• Motivate yourself with your own “before and after” pictures. Once you begin to see changes in yourself, it becomes easier and easier to keep motivating yourself to keep up with your fitness program.
Thus if you want to get fit, and more importantly stay fit, you and only you can pick the motivation hints that best fit you, and once you begin to exercise, you’ll be amply rewarded to stay motivated! Whether it’s the fact that you lost pounds on pounds, or can now go up a row of stairs without huffing and puffing, or can get into that beautiful dress you’ve been admiring, you can have it if you find what it takes to keep you on the right track and stick to your workout commitment.
