Have you fallen off the workout wagon? Has it been a tough week?
I understand the frustrations that you have when it comes to your body. I know all about the insecurities over the sizes of your thighs and how hopeless that can feel.
And today, I’m here to motivate you to take action.
The answer to your bodies frustrations is to get you up off the couch and into your workout. Better yet, in a routine that involves your workout as part of your schedule. Because honestly, no one is too “busy” to not be healthy.
I’ve heard the “but I’m too busy” reasoning behind being healthy. Let’s think about that for a minute. You mean to tell me there isn’t 5 minutes you can dedicate each morning or night to get your body moving? But
you find 5 minutes to get on Facebook. Hmmm?
Here is Part 1 of your Pep talk! When you need motivation or encouragement, simply read over this list and take action:
Remember that action alleviates anxiety. So whenever you’re feeling anxious over the current shape of your body and health, take that as a reminder to jump into action.
Motivation Action Plan Part I of IV
1. You’ll reset your body: Exercise has been described as a giant reset button. A good workout will block appetite swings, improve your mood and even help you sleep.
2. Your clothes will fit better: Consistent exercises will tone and tighten your body, causing your clothes to not only fit better but to also look nicer. Also with consistent exercises you’ll soon be trading your clothes in for smaller
sizes.
3. You’ll be less stressed: You have enough stress in your life – it’s time for a break. A good workout invigorates your muscles, leaving you relaxed and less stressed.
4. You’ll have more energy: WebMD tallied research studies and concluded that 90% of them prove exercise increases energy levels in sedentary patients. Next time you feel fatigued, the most powerful tool available: exercise.
5. You’ll be stronger: Exercise improves muscle strength and endurance, two things that you use throughout each day. When you exercise consistently you’ll be presently surprised when difficult tasks begin to seem easy.
Keep this list handy when you are feeling right at the edge of falling off the fitness wagon. Stay tuned for the rest of the Motivation Action Plan List.
