Ever feel like you just don’t have it in you to get your exercise on? Bored of the same routine? Here are some great ways spice things up a bit and put the groove back into your exercise
Music matters. Change up your music! Create several playlists and try a new one for each fitness routine. Try some new genres that you might not normally listen to, but that you just can’t resist moving to!
Bring a friend. Find a workout partner and keep a few extras on standby. Family members, co-workers, and neighbours make great workout buddies. You may be able to find a gym membership that allows you to bring a guest each time you go. If not, ask about guest passes.
Switch It Up! It’s easy to get comfortable doing the exercises you are most familiar with, but it’s important to try new ones. Another option is simply altering the order of exercises. Simply changing which exercise you do first, last and in the middle can have big results on the effectiveness of your fitness routine.
Try Something Different. Try classes such as yoga, Zumba, spinning or even pole dancing. When one class starts to get too familiar, try another. Change the way you work out frequently to keep your fitness routine fresh and make each trip to the gym exciting.
Change Your Fitness Routine Schedule. It may sound strange, but your body will respond to a change in the time of day or days of the week that your exercise. Overall, it’s about constantly confusing our bodies so we never hit that plateau we all hate so much. If that means switching the days and times you do your workouts, then give it a try!
Circuit training requires you to perform a series of exercise moves targeting different muscle groups one right after the other with little to no rest between exercises. Ultimately, it allows you to burn more calories, keep your heart rate elevated, and incorporate more exercises in a shorter amount of time.
Buy a New Outfit.
Cotton clothes tend to hold on to moisture, becoming wet and uncomfortable long before the end of your fitness routine. Proper workout gear will act like a wick, soaking up the sweat and pulling it away from your body. Feeling good and looking great will give you the confidence you need to give your all to your fitness routine.
Take It Outside.
Get outside and breathe some fresh air. Take a break from the stuffy gym and move your workout routine outdoors. Go for a run at your favourite park or play a sport with some friends.
Variety Is the Spice of Life.
If you do a lot of walking as part of your fitness routine, add some variety. Try a walk at the beach or at a park. If that’s not possible, try walking in a new neighbourhood instead of your own.
Change of scenery.
Looking at the same wall in the gym or in the corner of your living room can get pretty boring pretty quickly. Try changing your fitness routine location completely by moving from your home to a gym, or even changing gyms.
