Find a buddy to workout with.
Working out and carving a nice body is tough & requires a lot of dedication and consistency. A workout buddy will help you stay motivated & focused along the way and can be the difference between giving up or sticking to it.
Set your goals.
Then tape it to your computer, refrigerator or bathroom mirror. A word of caution! Be realistic when doing this. If you set drastic goals which are unattainable in short periods of time you're just setting yourself up for failure. Small consistent steps win the race.
Reward yourself when you reach a goal.
Maybe there's a new pair of workout sneakers or perhaps it's treating yourself to a spa treatment or a sports massage? Whatever it is, you should be rewarded for staying committed to meeting your goals.
Don't beat yourself up if you miss a workout.
If you skip a workout, don't let it be the end of the world (or your commitment).
Remember that life happens and fitness is a lifetime process. Don't dwell on what you didn't do, focus instead on what you are going to do next to make up for it. Schedule the next workout and forget the past.
