Do you know what one of the biggest reasons is for people not being able to commit to a fitness routine?
They say they “don’t have enough time,” but I’m here to help! In this blog post, I’ll show you how to carve out that time.
This quote shows why it’s so important to take time out of your day to care for yourself. If you don’t make time for your wellness, eventually you will have to make time for illness.
Even committing to just 5 minutes of exercise a week can help transform your routine. After those 5 minutes take root, they can grow into 30 minutes a day that you enjoy and look forward to.
10 Ways to Find Time for Your Fitness
💪🏽Get up first thing in the morning and go for a walk or do a cardio session.
💪🏽Take a walk or do a workout during your lunch break.
💪🏽Do strength exercises while watching TV at night (planks, bridges, squats, etc.).
💪🏽Turn household chores into a cardio session by turning up the music and moving fast enough to get your heart rate up.
💪🏽Turn your date nights into “fun” nights – go skating, hit the batting cage, go for a bike ride, or be active! (The same goes for family activity days.)
💪🏽Have a plan for your nutrition AND your workouts. When you have a plan in place, following it is a no-brainer!
💪🏽Make an appointment with your calendar every week and block time for your health & fitness into your schedule (workouts, meal planning, shopping, & prep, etc.)
💪🏽Find things you love – whether it’s food choices or exercise choices. You’ll start looking forward to it.
💪🏽Get support and accountability either in-person or online. Sometimes all you need is a cheerleader.
💪🏽Wear a fitness tracker and set daily movement goals. Don’t go to bed until you meet those goals!
Another way to make the most of your time:
Hire an experienced trainer/coach who can create a plan that works with your lifestyle, helps keep you motivated, and provides accountability and support every step of the way. If you’d like to come in to attend a ‘Bring a Friend’ training session as our guest text “Bring A Friend” to (916) 235-3453.
Quick assignment for today: sneak away for just 5 minutes and take action (stretch, crank out a set or two of push-ups/lunges, go for a brisk walk … just do ONE THING). You will feel accomplished afterward!
