I could probably get myself to get on a bike and go out for a ride but where I live I would need to contend with a heck of a lot of cars. It is not exactly bike friendly here.
I have the stationary bike, I know it is what I need to go do but I cannot get myself motivated to do it, any suggestions? |
The cardio is my least favorite, so instead of doing an hour at a good pace, I switched to 20 minutes of HIIT for a while. I try to change up my cardio routine once in a while to spice things up.
I also envision what 5lbs of fat looks like, and visualize that extra fat that I'd be removing.
You can take it another level and actually buy a replica of fat:
That's just 1lb of fat. :eek4:
I also use an mp3 music player or watch TV while exercising which helps pass the time.
