Fun Fitness
Just when you think it wouldn’t get any better
Exercise outside
- Take your physical activities to your school’s local track
- Go for a walk or a light jog in your community.
- Go bike riding
Get a workout partner
- Having a partner can make your workout last longer.
- Discussing goals and sharing ideas may get you more motivated.
Listen to music
- Music grabs attention and can set the mood. Listen on your favorite apps – free for 30 days.
- It encourages rhythmic motion delaying fatigue, and making your workouts enjoyable.
- Exercise durations are longer for individuals that listened to music than those who did not.
Perform different varieties of exercises
Our brains are wired to the point that if we do the same thing over and over and over again for an extended period, we become bored.
- Having variety is good. Not only can it keep your workouts fun, but it can prevent your body from going into plateau mode.
- Try interval training. These are some of the most engaging types of exercise.
- Remember to increase the intensity every so often so your body and mind can feel the challenge. When there’s a challenge, there’s less room for boredom.
Think of positive outcomes
- Speak affirmations over yourself. This can inspire you to feel better about yourself, encourage you to continue your health and fitness journey, and give you the drive to complete your workouts.
MOTIVATION + DETERMINATION + HARDWORK = SUCCESS
