I always hear many say when they make a purchase of an exercise equipment, like a treadmill or a stationary bike, the feeling is just superb. You feel good because you know you are doing something for yourself. You know that the machine will eventually give you the body, physique or shape that you are looking for.
The routine starts of well. The machine is experimented, explored and customized. All in the name of health and fitness.
Then... The old you sets in.
The work and responsibility comes in and overtakes the enthusiasm. You tell yourself, it's ok and this will pass and you will get back into the routine. However that never happens.
The machine which once was your best friend, now becomes a white elephant. It's just 'there' and you just don't have the time or interest any more.
Is this familiar with you. Is your white elephant now a place to hang cloths? Here are 2 tips for you to make the elephant a life again:
1. Have a goal. Lose 5kg, run/walk 10km a week or walking 10,000 steps a day. A target gets you to stick with the machine.
2. Have a set of attire. Although some suggest you can dress with minimum cloths in order to exercise with these machines, unfortunately it doesn't get you in state. No state means no results. So, go get yourself a sporting attire now.
Get Moving!
