Having a good understanding of the everyday pressures of daily life, I know that working out on a regular basis can be hard to accomplish. The everyday stress at work, coupled with the stress of taking care of the family needs, sometimes can make it a bit overwhelming to stick with a weight loss program.
That being said do NOT let stress become an excuse to avoid exercising altogether! Every one of us is given 24 hours in one day. If you can fit all your other obligations into this 24 hour period, why not find a few minutes for exercise? Don't you brush your teeth, take a shower, and get dressed every day? These are just a small part of your daily routine. Make exercise part of your daily routine as well.
I know what you are thinking! DON'T use 'lack of time' for an excuse to not exercise! To be honest, you probably fall into one of three categories. Either you are afraid of exercising, you don't know where to start when it comes to exercising, or you simply just lack the motivation to start exercising. In any case, the rest of this article is devoted to assisting you in achieving your fitness goals.
Tip 1: Find a friend or co-worker to work out with.
Exercising alone is not always the best option, but can be done if you have the desire and motivation. However, if you have someone to exercise with, it will make your workouts more enjoyable, instead of hating them. In addition, having a workout partner will give you extra motivation to continue your exercise routine. (You don't want to let your partner down!)
Tip 2: Get an iPod, MP3 player, or just a simple walkman.
This is a great way to take the boredom out of your routine in addition to time tending to pass by quicker.
Tip 3: Only do the exercises YOU like to do.
Don't force yourself to do exercises you hate. Sooner or later, you will find yourself getting bored with them.
Tip 4: Especially if you're a beginner, start out slow,
regardless of what you're told! Begin with 15 to 20 minute workouts only 2 to 3 times a week. As your body adapts to your new routine, then you can increase the level of your workouts along with the number of times a week you do your routine!
