]]> While working out is hard, sticking to a strict regimen can prove highly challenging for even the most dedicated gym-goers. After all, nobody enjoys being told what to do, especially when it comes to grueling tasks such as working out. Here are some tips to help you commit to your gym routine.

Listen to Music or a Podcast

You might find it easier to get through your workout by making it more entertaining. Listening to your favorite music or an interesting podcast can make your gym session far more bearable.

Reward Yourself

Make sure to set workout goals and reward yourself for sticking to your program. By knowing that there is a reward at the end of the journey, you may become more motivated to remain disciplined.

Find a Gym Partner

By working out with a friend, you can hold each other accountable and ensure that neither person gives up. What’s more, some friendly competition can make your workouts more interesting.

]]> Between work, school, grocery shopping, running errands, doing the laundry, looking after the kids, calling your mom, cooking dinner, and sleeping, it can be really tough to fit in time to exercise. 

If that description sounds even a little bit like your life, chances are that keeping fit is not at the top of your priorities list. The good news is, all you need to stay healthy is just over 10 minutes a day.

A study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine claims that you can lower your risk of chronic disease — and even death—with only 11 minutes of exercise per day. 

According to the research, 1 in 10 premature deaths could have been prevented if everyone achieved even half the recommended level of physical activity. It was found that 75 minutes of moderate-intensity activity per week (that’s 11 minutes a day) is enough to lower the risk of early death by 23%, and that of developing heart disease by 17%.

“If you are someone who finds the idea of 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity a week a bit daunting, then our findings should be good news,” said author of the study, Dr. Soren Brage. “Doing some physical activity is better than doing none.”

The activity should be vigorous enough that you can talk, but not sing, while doing it.

]]> Are you envious of people who manage to get to the gym at 6 a.m. and work out before you have even opened your eyes? How do they do it? Well, they have a nighttime routine, which requires them to go to bed early and be up early and refreshed ready to exercise. Having a routine can help you fall asleep around the same time every night, making waking up early less of a chore and more motivating. Here’s how to create a nighttime routine to help you get up early.

Mediate or Stretch 30 Minutes Before Bed Time

Put your phone on do not disturb, turn off the TV, and start relaxing your body and brain. This is a great time to meditate or do some light yoga stretching. It will help get your body and mind ready for sleep, not racing about what you just saw on Instagram.

Prepare Tomorrow’s Breakfast

Make sure you have something easy but filling for breakfast before you work out and overnight oats are a great option. They take a matter of minutes to make and can be taken with you.

Choose Your Clothes

In order to save extra precious minutes of sleep time, choose your sportswear the night before. Having to make decisions in the morning is hard, so make it easier on yourself and just set out the clothes you want to wear in the evening. You won’t need to think about it.

]]> Practicing yoga is extremely rewarding, but also harder than most people think, especially for yogis who have been doing yoga for a while. If you’re having a hard time focusing on your workouts or tracking your progress, here are a few signs that might indicate it’s time to change your yoga routine.

It Feels Like a Chore

The moment your workouts start feeling like a chore it’s time to change and improve them because you don’t want to end up hating exercise. If yoga class feels more like a chore, look for ways to make them more fun by finding a workout buddy, trying new yoga poses, or investing in new gear.

You Feel Exhausted After Practice

It’s okay to feel sleepy or tired after a workout sometimes, but if you’re constantly feeling exhausted after a yoga class it’s time to change something. Extreme fatigue may be a sign that you’re pushing yourself too hard and in that case, it’s best to take a few rest days or try different activities.

You’re Not Challenged

Challenging yourself during a workout will definitely make it harder, but it’ll also improve your performance and strength. Most importantly, challenging yoga workouts will keep you inspired to work hard on improving your practice.

]]> Smoothies are hands down one of the best ways to ensure you get enough vitamins, minerals, and protein. You have total control of what you put in them, and they’re also incredibly easy to make! But what are the best times to drink your smoothie? Believe it or not, but there are actual times during the day that are most optimal for smoothie intake. Here’s what you should know.

Morning Charm

A great habit to build is having a smoothie every day at breakfast. Ideally, this should be full of oats and fruits such as bananas and strawberries that supply you with vital nutrients. Having a smoothie every morning will give your body a constant supply of crucial nutrients that set you up for the day ahead.

Throughout The Day

An alternative option is to whisk up a nutritious smoothie and then drink it gradually throughout the day. You can leave it in the blender and serve yourself at two-hour intervals. This helps disperse your nutrient-intake throughout the day and eases your body while it absorbs the goodness.

Post-Workout

A popular method is to drink a smoothie high in protein right after you work out. This doesn’t actually mean that your body will absorb more nutrients than a pre-workout smoothie, but it does go easier down your stomach than while you’re working out!

]]> Protein is essential for repairing and rebuilding your muscles after a hard workout. Since this process requires a lot of protein, many people use protein shakes to supplement it. But when should you drink your protein shake? Is it better to drink it before or after your workout?

Although people often drink their protein shakes after their workouts, it actually doesn’t really make a difference. What matters for repairing and rebuilding muscle is your total daily intake of protein.

This means that it is still beneficial to take protein shakes and supplements if you are trying to build muscle. But it doesn’t have to be immediately after a workout or before. You could have your protein shake in the morning, with your lunch, or before you go to bed.

Although it doesn’t really matter whether you take your protein before or after your workout, practically it is usually better to have it afterward. This is because exercising on a full stomach of protein can slow you down, make you feel nauseous and it can disrupt healthy digestion.

It is therefore advisable to take your pretein after your workout rather than before, for practical reasons.

]]> Working with natural light is a powerful way to optimize your workouts and develop a more efficient fitness routine. Our bodies are ruled by the rhythms of the sun, moon, and stars. Working out at specific times of day can boost your energy levels, improve mental health, and instill greater confidence. Here’s how you can optimize your workout.

Wake with First Light

It might sound grueling, but waking up with the first light of dawn can be really powerful at boosting your energy levels. Your brain naturally picks up on the light and tells your body to wake up.

Early Morning Exercise

The best morning exercise will be carried out either at first light or swiftly following it. A morning run with the rising sun can do wonders for your emotional and physical health. Our bodies chime in with the rhythms of the cosmos and bountifully repay the effort.

Eat a Robust Meal Around Noon

A healthy meal full of vitamins, minerals, protein, and slow-release energy is advisable around noon. When the sun is highest in the sky, this is midway through the day and it’s just the right time to replenish your stores.

Wind Down for Sleep After Dark

This is not always easy, especially in the winter months. But try as much as possible to relax in the evening, eat a light meal, and stay away from bright lights or too many screens. This will prepare your body for an excellent night’s sleep before your morning workout.

Instead of giving up after the first month, you just have to find ways to make your time at the gym more interesting. When the regular routine gets boring, everyone is looking for a way to spice things up, and you can do it by making these small, but important changes.

Group Training

Instead of working out alone, join a training group at your gym, and have fun for a day doing some dance cardio or pilates. More people means more fun.

Break a Routine

Go from machine to machine, and try them all out. We all get stuck in a routine and don’t notice how amusing our day at the gym can be by trying something new.

Make a Friend

We are usually at the gym with our headphones on, but people are mostly nice and love to chat. You are all at the same place, so you have at least one thing in common. Asking for advice is a great way to make a friend, and from now on you’ll have a treadmill buddy.
