Consistency is key to a successful fitness routine, but what if you’ve lost it and want to go back to building good habits? No matter how long it’s been since the last time you worked out, you can always start again, and our tips and tricks will help you find all the motivation you need.
Look Back
Take a moment to reflect on your old fitness routine and the reasons why you gave up. This will help you avoid making the same mistakes and build a workout routine you can commit to long-term.
Right Routine
Instead of simply going back to your old routine, put some time and energy into finding a workout program that fits your current fitness level and the goals you’re trying to achieve.
Realistic Goals
Speaking of your fitness goals, keep in mind they won’t be the same now as they were before. By putting too much pressure on yourself, you’re putting yourself at risk of giving up again, so try to set realistic and achievable goals.
Baby Steps
Intense workouts have their perks, but jumping right into them can lead to soreness and injuries. Take baby steps and ease into your new routine until you’re ready to increase the intensity of your workouts.
New Start
Treat yourself to a few fitness essentials that will symbolize your new start and inspire you to hit the gym, such as new activewear or a workout journal.
