While working from home and spending lots of time at home, it’s easy to stay seated all day and to miss a workout. Finding the motivation to get moving is challenging, but there are ways to keep yourself motivated to exercise. Here are three ways to stay active every day.
Change Up Weekly Goals
Setting new goals each and every week or daily will help you stay motivated to get moving. Set goals like completing a certain amount of sets, increasing mileage, or trying a new workout video each day. Keep challenging yourself with new, harder goals.
Compete With a Friend
Follow your friends progress with a fitness tracker and pay attention to the types of workouts they complete. This friendly competition will help you stay accountable and motivated when you can’t be bothered getting off the couch.
Productive Recovery
To stay active you don’t need to do a high-intensity cardio workout everyday; try just getting up to stretch and move your legs. Try going for a walk around the block the next time you can’t be bothered doing a formal workout. After you workout, look forward to a recovery with a coffee or a healthy snack.
