Many people are eager to start going to the gym or doing online workouts from the comfort of their own home.
But in both cases the enthusiasm runs out rather quickly.
Why motivation is lost
The first reason is the desire to get a quick result and, of course, its absence.
Don't expect to lose half your weight or see six-pack abs after one or two months of training, it won't happen.
In addition, motivation may disappear altogether if it was insufficient to begin with.
When a person who goes to the gym to be healthy and beautiful realizes that he will have to make significant efforts to achieve this, his hands drop.
Before you start exercising, work hard on your true motivation.
Finally, a person who lacks self-discipline, that is, one who cannot overcome himself and develop new habits, will quickly give up.
How to get motivated to exercise
Alternatively, you can divide the global goal into stages. For example, if you want to lose weight, set yourself the task of losing 1 kg within a certain period of time. Once it is achieved, move on in the same small steps.
In addition, training with friends or family is a good motivator - you are unlikely to skip classes because of a feeling of shame, and at the same time you will become a motivation for other people.
Start with light exercises and do something you enjoy. Listen to your favorite music during your workouts and attend them regularly to help your brain get used to the changes.
And don't forget to praise yourself for your successes. This will help you create a positive connection between physical activity and pleasure.
