General motivation tips

Updated: 2 days ago



Define "why"

You can of course have summer and holidays and that the swimming trunks should be on as factors to motivate you with your weight loss. Defining your "why" I will train and reduce my weight will give you a personal or emotional investment in your goals. Why should you train? Why should you eat healthy? To live longer? To be able to be more mobile in age and have a better quality of life? Once you have defined your "why", it will be easier to stick to the plan you follow. You simply become more motivated.


Always have a spare bag in the car

Put a "for safety's sake" bag in the car with a change of training clothes and a pair of shoes. Also have an alternative workout ready, e.g. a walk to work, when plans change. Try to be proactive so you do not end up in the situation that the training does not end. And why not have the suspension band or the mini band with you. Then you will be ready any where, any time to do a session in the Bodyweight training app.


Follow the 3 x 10 rule

Short of time? Take a 10 minute walk, three times a day. Replace the evening walk with some squats, push-ups and crunches, and you will get a workout for the whole body. All these mini-workouts go together quickly and give you many total workout minutes for a week.


Small notes

Put up small notes with positive messages about training. Collect quotes when you find them. Paste them on your alarm clock, bathroom mirror or computer at work. They will serve as a constant reminder to take care of your health and give you inspiration.


Use social media

Skip selfies and daily check-ins and choose to use social media as a way to find inspiration for your workout. Join support groups (Bodyweightdiet on Facebook). A study found that support, accountability and even healthy competition in a support group can help you follow a training routine. Getting support from people who do a common cause and who understand you can be worth gold.
