What works for me may not work for you but I am going to offer some tips that I use to make working on my fitness a precedence.
The first leang I do every Sunday for the following week is pull out my planner and schedule my workouts. Just like a dentist appointment or a parent teacher conference. It is not someleang I may do whether I have time. It is an appointment I have with myself and I do not want to stand myself up.
I try to also plan what I will be doing on those days and where. I mix up days I workout at gym or at domestic ..or wherever I can squeeze it in but I am intentional.
I would always rather do my workouts at the gym as a preference. I like the social aspect of it . There are grown ups there and it’s kind since I work from domestic with small humans 50% of the time. I also love the outdoors so as soon as it is over 40 degrees I will hit the pavement or hiking trails as much as I can.
Remember it takes 30 days to create a habit . Create working out as natural as urgent the Keurig button every morning .
If you want to workout in the morning wake up 45 minutes early. Plan for it. Sleep in your workout clothes. Possess your work clothes packed and alert whether you go right to work from the gym. It is not impossible to squeeze in early morning workouts but you do need to do a small planning. I will have my kids clothes laid out in the morning and breakfast on the table before I head down to the basement to workout. I will set a timer for them so they know its time to get moving whether I am not done with my morning sweat sesh to help get them moving.
If you promise not to judge I will share with you I used to run the stairs in my office on my lunch break. I got several looks from people in the building but who cares right?
Create it social start a mommy walking club, map out trails you want to hike , or sign up for a 5k. It does not have to be boring or painful. Discover someleang that actually brings you delight and look forward to doing.
Next time you tell yourself you just don’t have time. Answer these questions for me.
How long did you scroll through Facebook or Instagram?
How many hours of TV did you watch?
If the answer is more than you care to shout out. Sis…you have time. You are just choose other activities over your fitness goals.
