Dreading the workout? That won’t help. If you spend the day worrying about having to make it to the gym, chances are you aren’t going to give it your all. Don’t think of working out as a task, but rather as a benefit. Get up early and work out to start your day. Now, you have the whole day to look forward to.
Tie your weight loss to an important event. Weddings, anniversaries, and reunions can be great motivators to help you exercise and lose weight. As always though, make sure you set attainable goals.
A little psychology can go a long way. Shaping is a behavioral modification technique that introduces new behaviors over a given period of time. If you’re concerned with having to work out for an hour, don’t. Work your way to that hour by starting with a 30-minute workout, and gradually increase the amount of time until you reach your target.
If you are starting to feel like you can’t complete an entire workout, then don’t. Do not be afraid to cut workout short. After all, 45 minutes instead of an hour is better than nothing at all. And you can always do a few sit-ups or stretches before you go to bed to help add flexibility to your day and make up for the sit-up and stretches you missed in your daily workout.
