Five Common Excuses to Skip Exercise
Classic commentary about staying
active during this time of the year can end up sounding like excuses or holding
goals off for a certain date on the calendar, like New Years. These positions
are not necessarily bad but why not start now? Here are five excuses that can
trick you, but don’t worry. We are here to reveal these excuses and give you weapons for
combat.
I Will Either Be Too Hot or Too Cold
This is a real factor in staying
active and can take the option completely off the table. If the weather isn't conducive for the type of activity desired, bring it home. Everything from an
inside gym to crunches in between daily tasks will get the job done.
I Have No Time
Time is a concept that no one
will ever grab a hold of, but combining activities will help. This idea has
been referenced in previous posts and we sympathize with not having time.
Making space by breaking up an activity throughout the day, packing a bag the
night before, and varying in intensity levels will all help with keeping
activity on the to-do list.
I’ll Start Fresh in January
Turning over a new leaf is a
great thing, but getting a head start can help keep the new leaf turned over.
Put aspirations of a healthier 2014 to motion early and don’t wait for the next
few weeks!
I Am Too Tired
Staying active gives you energy.
With the endorphins that are produced while staying active, it will ironically
provide the energy you lacked at the beginning. On the days where fatigue is more
intense, reduce the severity of your activity.
I Get Frustrated When I Don’t See Results Right Away
Don’t necessarily gauge the
importance of staying active with visible results. Those will come but it
relies on consistency. Set goals for certain days and stay concerned with
accomplishing these goals. Make adjustments when needed and keep your
enthusiasm high!
These excuses are thoughts that
almost everyone has encountered at one point or another, but being aware and
preparing yourself for solutions will be helpful this upcoming season!
