We all know we have to move our bodies more. So many of the health
problems afflicting modern generations can be cured, or at least
alleviated, by eating better and exercising more.
We
all have a friend or friends, who love their gym sessions! They are
fit, happy and they make time for their healthy habits every single day!
But for the most of people, it was something they had to stick with and
create a habit! So, how do you create a habit out of something you
don’t immediately enjoy?
First, identify what is standing in your way
You cannot solve a problem without first identify what is it. Start to ask yourself !
Is it boring? Is it commitment? Why am i do it?
Just be as honest as possible!
Second, look into possible solutions.
Now that you’ve identified
the barriers to your workouts, it is time to
start finding solutions to those barriers. If you are concerned about
the time commitment, the cost, the tediousness of it all, for example,
try shifting your focus. Doing something as simple as taking a long walk
after dinner could be a
great start. It is moving your body, and it is free. Just commit to
doing a little at a time. Nothing will change, if nothing changes. Some
days you may not want to workout but if you remember that you
always
feel better after you do, you’ll be more likely to just do it. If you
can remember those gains, you’ll be ahead of your own negative chatter.
Let’s be honest, making exercise a habit may not be easy but you know it
is the right thing.
