Hiring a coach or personal trainer can be every expensive-all because we want to be motivated in our everyday exercise routine. But why hire a coach or a personal trainer when you can be self-motivated and involve in excited exercises activities.

Here are ways to be self-motivated and feel the atmosphere of fun exercise.

1. START YOUR DAY WITH A SMILE

The best make-up one can put on his or her is a smile. Embrace your day with great joy and expect the best from it. How you start your day really matter a lots-a bad beginning might have a negative impact at the end. When preparing for your workout make sure no one spoils your day and abstain from anything that will get you to vex. With this beginning, you will have a lot of fun enjoying your exercises and your body will quickly respond to anything that has been placed on it.

2. PUT ON YOUR WORKOUT CLOTHES

Make sure you have attire for a workout, which can also increase your rate of motivation. Look at the person in the mirror-admire the costume and praise the person for the good look he/she possesses in the costume. That helps to bring the best in you.

3. WRITE DOWN HOW YOU FEEL AFTER EVERY EXERCISE

Write down your feeling every single time. So that when you’re on look motivation you can read what you’ve written and seen your accomplishments in a previous exercise routine. It will give you the craving to go for more. This really helps because it gives you an amazing feeling and lets you know your labor is not going to waste

4. BE SURROUNDED WITH MOTIVATION

You can hang motivational pictures on quotes on your mirror, e.g. “No pain no gain,” “Failure is not an option.” To give you a constant reminder to overcome every obstacle that you face. Each time you feel low-motivation, look at the pictures and quotes and your high rated motivation will definitely be restored.

5. WORK OUT WITH PEOPLE WHO WILL CHEER YOU ON

Having people standing behind you, yelling and jumping up and down when you’re stuck at the bottom of a heavy squat is the best motivator because it hypes you up, but also because it means everybody else in the gym looks over to see what’s going on and fear of failing with that big of an audience makes you at least 20% stronger.

6. COMPETE WITH ANY/EVERYONE

Secretly compete with whoever is exercising beside me, whether I know them or not. It helps you realize how far you’ve accomplished some routines and what you can do to add to more routines

7. THINK ABOUT HOW MUCH STRONGER YOU’RE GETTING

Let growing stronger and more conditioned be one of your main motivations. Knowing that your body just did something it couldn’t do a few weeks backs is an amazing feeling.

CONCLUSION

Always have the “I CAN DO MENTALITY.” Walk with that consciousness that nothing is hard for you to accomplish and that will overcome every obstacle before you.

Corporate wellness is about a lot more than just creating new health policies and expecting all staff to adhere to them. In fact, the evidence is that such an approach will, instead of achieving the desired effect, antagonize employees and stress them out and by so doing, further promote unhealthy lifestyle choices such as smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. A well thought out corporate wellness plan, though, will be a collection of factors that have been designed with carefully consideration for the needs and challenges of staff.

1. Realistic & Practical

Ambitious wellness plans may sound good on paper but in reality, with a goal of such magnitude, a healthy dose of realism is required and this must be reflected in practical, realistic plans. This means recognizing the fact that one size can’t possibly fit all when it comes to fitness and health and individual employees will need to have wellness plans that work for them as individuals. Also, implementing wholesale changes all at once might not be a very good idea; instead, an effective corporate wellness plan will have to be introduced in stages, to help employees get used to it and eventually, embrace it.

2. Accessibility

One of the key factors a corporate wellness plan should have is real access to fitness and wellness facilities such as gym’s and health centers. While company sponsored gym membership is, on its own, probably not a sufficient stimulant for a paradigm shift, it is one very important piece of the whole corporate wellness puzzle.

3. In-house Screenings

A lot of diseases can be easily prevented if they’re spotted early enough, but the fact is that most people postpone and put-off getting medical screenings for various reasons. However, if it can be arrangedd for medical professionals to visit company premises on a regular basis, staff are much more likely to take advantage of the opportunity.

4. Health Education

Companies have to be intentional about educating their staff on healthy lifestyle choices at every opportunity. From organizing wellness seminars to consistent dissemination of health materials, the opportunities for companies to educate their staff on health and wellness should be taken full advantage of.

5. Consistent Health Philosophy

It’s one thing for a company to announce a new corporate wellness philosophy to its staff, but to really gain employee engagement, this has to be backed by/with practical steps that support this goal. For example, it makes no sense asking staff to making healthy choices but then going ahead to install a soda vending machine, or selling pricey, healthy food.

Conclusion

These six factors are essential for any successful corporate wellness plan and you can use them to your advantage. Remember that the plan has to be practical and should be flexible enough to attend to the individual needs on employees.

The idea of corporate wellness is gathering momentum in the corporate world as more and more organizations are beginning to see the benefits it could yield. However, realizing the benefits of corporate wellness is one thing, but getting staff engagement on the issue is another thing entirely, and if you can’t get staff engagement, then your attempts at implementing the principles of corporate wellness will only lead to frustration and resentment from your staff. On the other hand, you might be able to motivate your staff and get them engaged if you follow these 6 simple steps:

1.Sensitize them

Most people’s first reaction to the idea of corporate wellness, might be mild curiosity, followed quickly by summary dismissal. As we grow older, the interest and desire to work out begins to wane (at least for most people) and this could be bad for health and fitness. You will need to be intentional about sensitizing your staff on the value of making healthy lifestyle choices and this might mean organizing a seminar, getting in professional trainers to speak to the staff, and including health lifestyle choices as a part of your corporate values and philosophy.

2.Offer some incentives

Even though it’s probably not unreasonable to expect your staff to make the right health choices without needing extra motivation, in the real world people often don’t make the right health choices whether they know better or not. Given the fact that having a healthy workforce should is intrinsic to the success of any organization, we think it might not be a bad idea to offer some incentives such as bonus appraisal points for staff who achieve certain wellness metrics.

3.Communicate loud and clear

One thing that helps to keep everyone in an organization on track and working towards the same goals, is consistently loud and clear communication. It’s easy for staff to get the memo and, basically, just ignore it but you can get around this by showing your employees that you’re serious about corporate wellness. Depending on what channels of communication are available, tactics such as making frequent announcements, distributing health and wellness leaflets or (if you use a noticeboard) posting a permanent notice on health and wellness, are all smart ideas to help you get your staff engaged and motivated.

4.Turn it into a bonding opportunity

Regular bonding sessions and outings are essential for creating stronger, more effective teams and you can kill two birds with one stone by organizing group workout sessions or going out for some sporting activity on a regular basis. Research has also shown that people are likely to stick with a plan or some values if they are learned in a social setting.

5.Walk the talk

Needless to say, if you’re trying to create a shift in the awareness of your staff of health and welfare issues, management is going to have to lead the way not only by setting an example, but by making sure that events such as corporate dinners, year end celebrations and other such occasions are catered for with healthy food only.

6.Gym Memberships

If the organization can afford it, paid membership of a local gym or fitness center is a good move to help motivate staff to get some regular exercise. Larger organizations might want to think about getting an in-house gym which makes a lot of sense given the fact that some studies have indicated that a moderate, mid-day workout session will yield very high results for productivity at work.

Conclusion

Motivating employees to pay more attention to their health and fitness plans will not only help to maintain a healthy and more productive workforce, but will also help you cut your medical expenditure significantly. You can use these 6 tips outlined here, to help you get your staff fully engaged and committed to the idea of corporate wellness.

Joining a gym is easy, sometimes it becomes too easy as the promises made by the gym instructors and the magazines gives you a vision of a newly svelte you, minus all the hard work in-between.

After one or two weeks you become lazy, and sometimes it hits you that you have actually made a commitment on something and even when you are now too lazy to attend, your wallet is still actively contributing.

Rather than you regretting every time you pass the street where your gym is, or catch side with your gym membership card, why not own up to your commitment and stay motivated about turning up and achieving what you always wanted to?

These are few steps that will get you motivated to revisit your gym and get that body you’ve always wanted.

1. Put on your gym clothes; the process of going to the gym and exercising can be intimidating, and sometimes scary so why not break it into smaller steps? Start by making a commitment. Make a commitment that you are just going to put on your gym clothes and get to the gym, if you get there and don’t feel like exercising, don’t. Just tell yourself that you will just go home as soon as you get there. The odds are, once you are there it won’t be that hard to convince yourself to do at least 15 minute of exercise. There you have it, you have done25 minutes. Once you are done with the 15 minutes, convince yourself to do another 10 minutes, and keep pushing yourself incrementally.

2. If the money you’ve spent doesn’t motivate you, try squeezing yourself into a pair of jean you’ve wanted to wear for a long time but can’t because you are too big for it, and see how well it will go. Better still, bring out all the clothes in your closet you wish you could fit into, including the one you are wearing that’s stretching unforgivably and use them as a motivator to get back to the gym. Take pictures of yourself trying to wear those tight clothes and stick them where you will see them as reminders of what really needs to happen.

3. Treat yourself to some nice gym gear if you haven’t already done so. Head out to a store that sells workout clothes and purchase some gears that will make you look and feel good. Since the gym is the only place you’ll get to wear these good stylish gears you’ve bought, you have a new reason to go there.

4. Going to the gym is with a friend is fun. Ask your friend to come along and help keep you motivated. Hitting the gym with a friend is more like hanging out with him or her, you can schedule a post workout coffee and chat to increase the enjoyment.

5. Motivate yourself using mental imagery, picture yourself at the gym working out and making it and enjoying it the way you’ve always wanted. Close your eyes and see the figure you’d like to have with all your gym effort, maybe like that of your favorite celebrity. This will motivate you the most to hit the gym.

6. Listen to music, music is life and music is entertainment. When visiting the gym wear your MP3 player or your iPod, and listen to those favorite tunes, include new ones you’ll like to listen more. Music is a great motivator, its more enjoyable when you can move to the beat at the same time. Training to your favorite music has a positive effect on the limbic system of your brain; it causes your emotions to respond favorably to the exercise.

Finally, do not stick to one workout; challenge your body to new exercises.

The hardest thing about starting a fitness program isn’t the workouts or the dietary changes or even the lifestyle changes. Its having that motivation and keeping it. A fitness program without motivation is like trying to breathe (through your nose) underwater, you’ll drown! For most people, the motivation could be the health benefits, their goal weight, more confidence, improved quality of life, anything. For some, it could even be the look on the faces of the people who used to body-shame her/him when they finally achieve their fitness goals. People use these thoughts to fuel their drive and push themselves to the gym the next day. Motivation easily diminishes when things get start to tough (which they always do), so we have compiled 5 ways you could boost your motivation for more effective fitness results.

1. Lighten up your goals

It’s good that you set up goals for yourself; it would help you have a clear idea of exactly what it is you’re aiming for. However it is very important that you remember to make those goals realistic. that way you won’t be setting yourself up for disappointment, especially if you’re a beginner.

2. Seek support

This might be pretty cliche but it is very helpful for motivation- seekers. Find yourself a cheering squad. they could be anyone willing to help, friends, family, co-workers, neighbors etc. Just make sure they’re cheering you on the right way and not criticizing you. If they are, kindly let them know.

3. Keep track Of Your Progress

Note down the pounds you lost in a week, that extra mile you ran today, the extra reps you did or even your speed, anything that signifies your progress so you can refer back to it when you begin to contemplate going back to the gym. It will give you just the right amount of motivation you need.

4. Focus on you

Don’t look at what that person in the gym looks like, is doing or has done. Don’t compare your progress to anyone else’s. There’s always going to be someone fitter, faster and more flexible than you, so just give it your best and you will see results you can be proud of.

5. Reward yourself for your accomplishments

Big or small, you deserve it. Treat yourself a few goodies anytime you achieve a goal. be careful though to not consume too much calorie-dense food because that would only set you back in your fitness goals.

Remember that consistency is the ultimate goal.

There is no escaping the fact that for a good number of people, fitness training can get really monotonous, and regardless of your goals and how motivated you are, some days might come when you just won’t want to work out. We’ve put together this list of 5 very simply things that you can do to keep yourself going when working out becomes boring and monotonous. Read on to find out more.

Play Music

Music has a therapeutic quality for a lot of people and you can use this to your advantage by selecting some upbeat songs that you like and playing them as you exercise. It has been found that people who listen to music often have much more effective workout sessions that people who don’t, also people who listen to music while they exercise have a greater tendency to stick with a training plan than those who don’t.

Get a Workout Buddy

The likelihood is that you might have a friend or two who might have an interest in fitness goals similar to yours. It would be a good idea to have a joint workout session or sessions, as studies have shown that people who work out together often experience greater gains from their exercise than people who go solo.

Take Up a Sport

Running, lifting weights, doing set after set of push-ups and squats, can all get extremely boring; but what if there was a way for you to achieve your workout goals without your workout sessions getting monotonous or boring? It’s simple: take up a sport. There are lots of sports that will work your muscles and activate your cardiovascular system very effectively.

Write Down Your Goals

There’s something about writing down your goals that just helps you stay focused and committed a little bit more than you might have been otherwise. This can’t be proven scientifically, but going by popular experience, we can tell you with conviction that this is one clever tip that will help improve your consistency over time. This might perhaps be because constantly reminding yourself of the reason why you started working out, might provide that extra bit of willpower in the times when you would much rather crash on the sofa, watching a re-run of your favorite show and guzzling cans of coke by the bucketload.

Track Your Progress

Keeping track of the gains you have made since you started working out is a very clever way to keep yourself motivated to do more. This doesn’t mean you should jump on the scales every single day, as you could end up getting discouraged if the scale tells you your weight has stayed the same. The truth is, measuring your weight on a day by day basis is not exactly the best way to tell how much progress you are making because if you are using a fitness plan which involves resistance training (which you should) you might find that your body will actually get heavier even though you’re burning fat.

Instead, check your weight on a fortnightly basis, and use other metrics such as waist size and Body Mass Index, to determine the true extent of progress you have made or are making.

Conclusion

These 5 tips are very simple but guaranteed to help you stay motivated and keep your fitness training on track. You could also hire a personal trainer to help you, and if you live in the UAE, we would be happy to recommend someone you can trust. Please contact us at:
