Adjust your goals
Setting clear goals is an important step in boosting your motivation and defining the path you should take to reach your objectives. Your original goals of getting ready for that 10K fun run, losing weight for your sister’s wedding, or getting in shape before your big holiday might be momentarily on hold for now; however, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take time for yourself to get stronger and healthier.
Set out a dedicated workout space
Much like designating a certain area of your house as a workspace to give you a healthy separation between your work life and your home life, setting up a dedicated workout space helps encourage a regular exercise routine.
Coming to your designated workout space regularly will make it more of a ritual, and can help inspire you to keep up your routine.
Eliminate the excuses
Book your sessions into your calendar for the same time each day. Most people will find that getting a workout done and dusted in the morning is the best option, as they are more likely to feel tired at the end of the work day.
Set your alarm for the same time every day and put your phone or clock out of reach so that you have to get up to turn it off. Lay out your workout clothes the night before with a sweat towel and your water bottle.
Enlist a virtual workout buddy! It could be a friend, colleague, cousin or someone that you would normally see at the gym. Make a no excuses pact to join a virtual workout session together 3-4 times a week, and message each other regularly to keep each other accountable.
Up the ante
Increasing the resistance or load within an exercise is a great way to challenge yourself and keep you engaged in your workouts. You may need to get creative with what you have around your house to add a little extra to your workout moves—your trainers will also be able to provide you with some ideas.
