And what could this be? Exercise!
Yes, it’s true and we all know it, but many of us struggle with getting into the fitness habit.We work all day, then there are chores at home and by the time we have a chance to relax, it’s 2me to go to bed.
The first thing we have to do is overcome this feeling that exercise is too difficult to fit into our routines. Here are some of the most common reasons we tell ourselves we can’t start daily exercise and ways to overcome these reasons:
1. It’s too hard!
Sure it is, if we set impossible goals for ourselves. And impossible goals include “going to the gym for an hour a day”. Start with a goal that is really easy like five minutes of exercise a day. That’s right, five.Work your way to 10minutes after a month, and gradually increase it every month. Before you know it, one hour a day is part of your routine.
2. I don’t know what I should do. This you have to be specific on. Don’t just say you are going to exercise; say “I am going to take a walk around the block,” or “I am going to bike to work.” It will make a difference.
3. No one cares but me Other people do care. Our loved ones want us to stay healthy and look after ourselves. The best way to find this out is to use your social media outlets. If you are on Facebook or Twitter, report your progress, or tack your accomplishments up on the fridge. You will be pleased with the reaction and support you will get. It’s a great motivator.
Experts say it takes two to three weeks to form a habit. Commit to five minutes per day and see what happens. You’ve got the power to do it!
