Motivation

Staying motivated is one of the hardest aspects of fitness. But it has to be done! Here are some tips to keep it up. 

  • Stop making excuses and workout! There are so many options to break a sweat. If you don't have a gym membership by now....then that is the first thing you need to take care of. You can find memberships that are as cheap as it comes. 
    • Take a fitness class and fall inlove. 
    • Get a fitness program online...all of the programs from BeachBody.com are phenomenal and will get you results! 
    • Go for a run or a bike ride outside...its scenic and totally free and relaxing.
    • Put together different workouts with light weights to work all the parts of your body for the gym or at home...keep checking out Fit and Fabulous to find different ones!
  • Make an inspiration board! I have one in my room and it really helps. Go on Pinterest and find fitness pictures and celebrities (or some of the pics below) and make a collage. Hang it somewhere you will see it everyday and the hot bods will make you want to workout!
  • Get a sexy pair of sneaks! If I have a cute part of Nikes or even hot workout clothes I want to workout in them all the time! 
  • Don't sweat it: If you have an off day or end up gorging one night....do not kill yourself over it! Just workout even harder the next day. Don't say "well, I already ruined my diet so what's the point". Just act like it was planned because in reality it won't kill you. Just don't make it every other day.
  • Find a Fit Friend! Have a friend that loves fitness just as much as you do to share your progress and ideas with! Plus you will always have someone to go to the track with or try a new class...they'll be just as excited and motivated as you!
  • Commit! The first step of changing your life and your health is by committing yourself to the change and holding yourself accountable.
