Fit Bot 2017 - Get Motivated - Gym Motivation... by petercool217
1. Don’t Forget To Have Fun
Working out should be fun. If you manage to let the good times roll while exercising, you are less likely to give up after only a couple of weeks. This tip will also help you exercise longer and harder.
Put on your favorite music if you are in the gym, or watch your favorite TV show if you are working out at home.
2. Utilize Social Media Social media can do wonders for your workout motivation.
Posting your progress online using Snapchat, Twitter, Instagram or Facebook will keep you on track and make you crave for more workout sessions.
“You’ll be surprised how many people help,” Ramsay says.
“They’ll rally behind you, offer tips, and steer you away from missing a workout.”
3. Make The World Your Gym
You can do stretches and squeeze your abs while out in public doing regular everyday stuff. Instead of using an elevator – take the stairs. Waiting for a bus? Squeeze your lower abs!
“You’ll be amazed at how much you can develop your core strength while driving,” Ramsay says.
4. Break Your Training Sessions Up
If you have trouble staying focused during your workout sessions because they are long and tedious, break your exercises into small chunks.
“Five minutes here, 5 minutes there — it all adds up,” Ramsay says. “Stretch for 10 minutes before your morning shower. Take a brisk, 20-minute walk at lunch. Lift weights while you wait for your pasta water to boil.”
5. Avoid Sports Drinks
“Unless you’re a pro athlete, they’re not necessary,” he says. “I see it all the time at the gym. Sports drinks are loaded with extra calories. Try water with lemon instead.”
