Exercise! How to get motivated? I finally came up with something that works for me. I have a great book I am reading. I can only read it if I am on the exercise bike. I plan on purchasing the other books by the
author. This gives me the incentive to workout. It is also important to keep your body guessing, and not do the same routine everyday. I will work on that down the road. For now the bike along with some physical therapy exercises will be a good start. My first goal is to do this 4 days a week for 3 months. What motivates you to exercise?
Great idea with the book! I usually aim unrealistically high, for example I'll tell myself I'll workout 6 days a week but get in 4 days a week. I know my patterns well enough that if I have a goal of 3-4 workouts per week I'll only do one or two. That probably doesn't help but that's what I really do. Also, when the weather gets nicer and you like to walk you can also listen to audiobooks. I listen to audiobooks when I paint and I get the CDs from the library. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI have not tried the audio books, but it is a great idea.
