The Secret To Regular Exercise Is…
December 1st, 2008
I have been really good about exercising lately. It’s becoming routine now and I’ve not missed any of my planned sessions.
It occurred to me today while doing my interval training that the key to success is discipline. I really don’t know why it’s taken me so long to figure it out really.
Motivation is still an important part of getting fit and healthy but I can recall many occasions where it has totally failed me, usually when I was sitting on the couch eating popcorn or chips!
Being disciplined needs to flow into other areas of your life to be able to continue exercising and doing all those important things necessary to be healthy.
I’ve found that planning my day is key to regular exercise. Sometimes things come up that throw my schedule into chaos but I have decided that when this happens, I just have to prioritize and if necessary drop something off my list. The one thing that doesn’t get taken off the list is exercise. I need to make sure that it continues to be a top priority.
The other great thing about being disciplined is that I feel better about myself. So it’s a win win situation!
