Today I thought I would share with you a little different post than normal. Now I don't know about you but I go through spells with working out. I swear one month I'm like really into it then the next I don't even want to think about going to the gym. So I thought I would write a post about 5 ways you can use to get motivated to go to the gym if you are on the struggle bus like I have been! So here we go:
1. Buy Cute Gear. Yes. I know when I saw these Nike's I was more pumped to workout because I had new shoes. I think all girls would agree ;)
2. Invite a Friend! When I used to live in my hometown we all did a bootcamp together and it made it so much easier to go and harder not to go because I knew my friends would be there lol. They are great motivation.
3. Try a Fun Class. The gym Justin and I just signed up for not to long ago has a ton of classes I've been wanting to try (one of them being Hip Hop!). I know if I had a scheduled class every week I would definitely go.
4. Download a New Playlist. I pay like $10 a month for Spotify and it is the best investment ever. They have a new music Friday and I always create a new playlist from that. New music always gets me excited to workout.
5. Stop Thinking about it and Just Do It. Ok so maybe I stole part of Nike's slogan...but it's true!
How do you stay motivated to workout or go to the gym?

Yes I agree! Thanks babe!
Delete"Just do it" is THE motto. I always need to put on my workout clothes and get out of the damn door or it won't happen. Loved this motivation post, you look amazing!

Thanks Steph! :)
DeleteYou go girl!! I love the fact that you enjoy working out.
ReplyDeleteLol lets not go that far. I just do it because I know I need to ;)
DeleteGreat tips and such fun photos! I am a huge advocate of cute gear and a great playlist! As someone who actually loves to train alone, I personally don't do much in the way of classes or the buddy system anymore (blame 20 years of teaching group fitness and a doing personal training in a gym setting, lol), it is SO important for so many! Great post!
