Here are 3 quick tips to help you get back on track:
1. Make it a good habit. Commit to working out every day for 30 days straight, even if it’s just for 15 minutes. This will help solidify your exercise routine and get you back into the swing of things. “Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.” – Jim Rohn
And if you can’t manage to get to the gym each day, here’s a great leg and bum workout so you can still make your goal. Even working out for 15 minutes will keep you in the proper mindset and solidify the exercise habit.
2. Get a gym buddy. You can be accountable for your own goals, but adding a buddy will make going to the gym much more fun. Plus, he or she can hold you accountable when you try to skip a workout.
3. Celebrate your achievements! Reward yourself once you meet your goal with a gift you’ve been eyeing, a massage, or a night out with your friends. It doesn’t have to be big, but the point is to celebrate, and make a plan to do so!
The reason why many people have a hard time staying “motivated” with their fitness goals is because they don’t plan on celebrating their success.
Change that approach and start planning today how you want to celebrate. You deserve it! Celebrating is a great way to lock in that feeling of success.
