| Re: Motivation or lack thereof Hey YTWCKF,
Have you tried workout videos? They always spices things up a bit. Not "sweating to the oldies" or anything more like the Tae-bo, kick boxing style. All that punching and kicking really works up a sweat.
You can also just walk the stairs in your house. 15-20 times up and down really gets the heart pumping. Time yourself to keep it interesting.
If your having trouble getting motivated to workout, what I do is change into my workout clothes right when I get home ( unless I am going out somewhere). This stops me from making another excuse not to do my workout. I find myself saying "well your already dressed for it, so you might as well do it"
What about challanging your co-workers to a weight loss contest? I did and won $40 and free (friday) lunch for a month. We baised it on highest % lost not on # of lbs lost. The best part was that everyone lost weight and we all motivated each other. ( Not in the good way though )
Good luck,
Steve |
