You Shouldn’t Hate Working Out And How We Will Make Sure You Won’t
Today, you’re feeling motivated to exercise. This time it’s going to be different. You put on your workout gear, lace up your running shoes and head to the track. You’re going to run and then you’re going to do some circuit training and soon you’ll be back in great shape. Your foot hits the ground – off to a great start.Soon people start to pass you, your pace slows. You start feeling your chest tighten and your legs tire. A voice in your head yells, “no pain, no gain!” Suddenly, you remember why you stopped running in the first place.You hate working out.Sound familiar? Too often people lose motivation and give up on their fitness goals because they’re convinced they just hate to exercise. We’ve heard it all before “pain is weakness leaving your body” and “no pain, no gain.” But, is that really the way it has to be?No. Exercise does not have to be a painful, torturous experience.Chances are that the people who pounded these mantras into your mind are also the people who made you form a negative relationship with physical fitness. Maybe it was an over aggressive gym teacher, an athletic coach or even a personal trainer. Whatever the experience, it left you scarred and the wounds are out there on the track for everyone to see. You slink back home and retire your sneakers for another month. Maybe you’ll try again in time for summer pool parties.It doesn’t have to be this way. I want you to love fitness. Not just exercise. I want you to love being a fit, active person. I want to inspire you to get up in the morning and lead an active life. I want you to proudly retire your first pair of shoes because they’re worn out.
