Does this sound familiar? You\u2019re not alone because many people lose interest in their fitness plans if they get bored or aren\u2019t seeing the results they want to see. So how can you stay motivated? We\u2019ve got some helpful tips.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li1\"><b>Set reasonable, achievable goals<\/b>. Goals that are too ambitious can end up being more frustrating than helpful. Set simple goals at first, then move on to longer-range goals. If you\u2019re not used to walking, don\u2019t set your first goal as completing a 5K walk. Instead, set a goal of walking 10 minutes a day five days a week, then move up to 30 minutes a day, gradually working up to your 5K walk.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><b>Find an exercise that\u2019s fun!<\/b> If you\u2019re not enjoying your workouts, it\u2019s easy to lose your motivation. Instead, find something you enjoy doing, like volleyball, martial arts, or ballroom dancing. Take a class at your athletic club or work out at home with an online video. Take a walk in the park or explore local hiking trails.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><b>Incorporate activity into your daily routine<\/b>. It can be hard to fit in a workout, but don\u2019t let a lack of time be your excuse for not exercising. Instead, find ways to be more active throughout your day. For example, walk around the outside of a field while your kids play a sport, take a walk on your lunch break, park at the far corner of the parking lot, or exercise while you watch television.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><b>Write it down<\/b>. When you write down your goals, it\u2019s easier to remember what you\u2019re trying to accomplish. Keeping a fitness journal can also be helpful as you record your efforts and track your progress.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><b>Enlist some support<\/b>. You\u2019re probably not the only one who needs motivation, so rally your friends, family, or coworkers to join you in your efforts. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><b>Treat yourself<\/b>. Be mindful of the good feelings you have after an exercise session for an internal reward that will help boost your commitment. Use external rewards, treating yourself to a new pair of walking shoes, a massage, or new tunes to listen to during your workout.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><b>Remain flexible.<\/b> If you\u2019re too busy or unmotivated, don\u2019t be afraid to take a day off. Give yourself a break when you need it, then quickly get back on track!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p1\">Sometimes the best motivation is being part of a club where you can receive expert training and enjoy the camaraderie of others pushing toward their fitness goals.
