Listening to audiobooks is a great way to fit more books into your busy schedule. Swap your favorite workout playlist for an audiobook while running, walking, or using cardio machines at the gym and you’ll get to enjoy even more benefits.
Motivation
Tell yourself you’ll only listen to your audiobook when training so that you’ll be super motivated to get up and go. Choose an engaging story like a mystery, romance, or thriller and you’ll be desperate to find out what happens next.
Learning
Reading (or listening to) books is a great way to broaden your mind and learn about new things. You’ll feel super virtuous after you’ve finished your run AND your next chapter.
Distraction
If you don’t enjoy exercising and are plagued with negative thoughts, audiobooks can provide a great distraction. Instead of focusing on how tired you feel or being in pain, you will be drawn into the story and forget all about the burn.
Longer Workouts
Choosing an audiobook companion can also help you lengthen your training sessions. You might lose track of time or want to extend your workout just so you can find out what happens next!
