Set Goals

Setting your goals is key to the start of any weight loss process and it also makes the process more fun! Goals are important because they give us a sense of direction and motivation. If we are on the right track to accomplishing our goals, we feel a sense of achievement, making the workout process more enjoyable. Once we make our goals, we feel more confident and we know that if we put our mind to it, we can attain it.

Change it up
Change it up
Spice up your workouts by adding variety. Sometimes we fall into the habit of doing the same set over and over again. Trust me I know, nothing is more boring than doing the same daily workout routine every time you go to the gym. Try switching up your cardio routine, if you are always running on the treadmill try swimming instead. When it comes to strength training, switch up between free weights and resistance machines.
