No matter how much you love working out, staying motivated in hot and humid weather can be extremely difficult. If you’re having a hard time committing to your summer workouts, use these tricks to give yourself a motivational boost.
Morning Workouts
If you enjoy working out outdoors, you can’t really do it anytime you want. Morning workouts are your best option because it’s not unbearably warm outside. They allow you to start your day on a high note and get one item from your to-do list out of the way.
Switching Things Up
Running, cycling, and hitting the gym are not your only workout options. Summer is rich in opportunities for all sorts of different outdoor activities that will give you a major calorie burn.
Reward System
Working out in the summer comes with a unique set of obstacles, and you should give yourself a tap on the back for doing it. Treat yourself for staying committed to your fitness routine by setting up a reward system—preferably one that doesn’t involve unhealthy treats.
