When you have a group class or an intense workout planned but your body doesn't seem to be in the mood to do it, you have to know how to react.
Follow a training program consistent with your goals, pay attention to your diet, get good professional advice... This allows you to easily get on the right path. What's more difficult is staying motivated over time.
Being ready and fully ready for each session, giving everything until the last drop of sweat is not easy for everyone. It's like a skill that you have to cultivate over time.
Here are some tips from #TeamStimium to give your best.
The level of effort required by intensive training is not everyone's daily routine. This is why it is important to mentally prepare for this session.
You should start preparing your mind for a workout at least 30-45 minutes before your workout: by car, on the subway, or by walking before arriving at the gym. Visualize what you are about to do, why you are going to do it, and how you will feel when you are finished.
When you arrive at the gym, what could be more motivating than to sit down for 2 minutes and watch a motivational video? Whether it's the exploits of a top athlete or certain advertisements from certain sports equipment manufacturers, the web is full of videos that will give you the motivation to tackle your training!
- Have a concrete objective for each session
Ideally, each session should be better than the previous one in terms of performance. This only works if you have one or more defined Fitness goals.
You don't have to do better on every set, every rep, than the last, but you should try to improve small things in every session.
- Allow yourself small deviations…
A beautiful physique is built through consistency:
- Adapted training
- Effective movements
- A healthy diet
- A consistent life
Over time you learn to know yourself and know how your body reacts. We must maintain this spark of excitement, of pleasure of training, during each session.
To do this, give yourself rest when it seems necessary; the goal is not to give up or feel guilty if you miss a workout.
The advice of our Stimium Coach:
“ You need to find YOUR Fitness activity, the one in which you will find the most PLEASURE.
PLEASURE = MOTIVATION = RESULTS »
- Team up with someone who will push you
All the tips we listed above are easier to do with a great gym partner. This makes training more exciting, motivating and therefore often provides better results!
Working with a friend or a group of friends is the perfect motivation to surpass yourself while having fun at the same time.
Downside: be careful to train with someone who has the same goals and the same motivation as you!
