6 Top Tips For Maintaining The Motivation To Lose Weight

admin — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 22:52:21 +0000

Maintaining the motivation to lose weight is often the most difficult part of losing weight. Most people have no problem signing up for a new diet or fitness program and getting all fired up at the start. It’s actually sticking with long term goals over a period of months and years that trips most people up. If you’re fed up of losing and gaining the same pounds over and over, it’s time to consider some sure-fire tips to maintain your motivation to lose weight.

Check Your Numbers

The motivation to lose weight is not just about looking and feeling better. It’s also about knowing you are healthier inside! One way to stay motivated is to visit your doctor and have blood work drawn just before you begin your new diet. You can go back at regular intervals to see changes in your blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar, and other important numbers.

If you have been diagnosed with diabetes or another health problem, just going off of your medications and knowing you have eliminated the health risk can be great motivation.

Give Yourself Praise

You can your motivation to lose weight by tracking your compliance with goals on a daily basis. You essentially want to give yourself praise for all of your hard work, whether it be a sticker in a notebook or a checkbook in your day planner. If you are handy on the computer you can even create a chart that you update daily.

Get A Partner

If you can team up with a friend or family member who will hold you accountable, you could both reach your goals much faster and push through the difficult times. It’s more difficult to miss a workout when you know there’s someone else relying on you to show up.

You might even want to create friendly competition or set a prize that only one of you can win at regular intervals. If you are competitive by inclination this can be a great way to maintain the motivation to lose weight over a longer period of time.

Get Competitive

Alternatively, you can sustain your motivation to lose weight by competing against yourself. Sign up for a 5 kilometer run (or walk) every few months and challenge yourself to improve your time.

Rewards

Regularly giving yourself rewards is another great way to stayed focused on your prize. Having only one reward at the end once you’ve achieved your ultimate weight loss goal won’t work since it is so far off, but smaller rewards set every 5 or 10 pounds will deliver that motivation to lose weight.

Have A Deeper Purpose

It’s easy to say you want to shed 40 pounds so you look hot in your bikini, but what are your deeper reasons behind wanting to lose weight? Take some time to write down a very detailed list that includes all of the reasons why you want to lose weight. Stick it up around your home or keep it in your purse so you can read through it whenever you’re lacking motivation.

Now, take some time to turn this around on yourself. Make a list of all the things you foresee that could happen in your future if you don’t do what it takes to lose weight. Which list do you want to be living in the next 5 years?

Reflect on your own personality quirks to come up with more unique ways to establish the motivation to lose weight.

The Main Muscles To Hit Up When At The Gym

Larry Snow — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 18:26:58 +0000

If you are just embarking on a new exercise regime, or looking for one that will push you harder, you don’t need me to tell you that there are literally thousands of them out there to choose from. The good news is that many of them are very effective in helping you to change your body shape.

Changing your body shape is a lengthy process, and you must stay dedicated to achieve your goals. A half hearted attempt will not give you the results you are looking for.

Your exercise regime must include all the major muscle group so that you build your body up in proportion. Here are the main ones to concentrate on.

For me, by far the most important group of muscles are in the chest. This is a controversial opinion but one that I stick by.

A strong chest and back will make life much easier for you to achieve the overall results that you are wanting to achieve from the rest of your body. Pull ups and other back exercises will ensure that that you have firm and even muscle distribution.

All the girls love their men to have firm broad shoulders, so make sure you have specific shoulder exercise incorporated into your work out routine.

While we are on this area, don’t neglect your arms. Remember that there are two muscles groups to work here; triceps and biceps and you have a choice of working on them separately on doing exercises which work both together.

If you want to look great from head to foot, don’t forget your leg exercises. Don’t be under the misconception that they will be getting worked anyway, they need specific exercises.

So know you know some of the major muscle groups to work out in order to achieve the results you want. Add in to the mix some running, abs exercise, some for your lower back and also your forearms.

In addition to fitness, the author additionally regularly writes about childrens bedroom sets and cheap wood bed frames.
