10 Ways To Push Yourself To Exercice

Finding ways to push yourself through a tough workout out can be a challenge for all people of all fitness levels. Whether you are new to fitness or if you have reached a plateau in your workout, pushing yourself is very important if you want to see results. After time, your body will get used to the same workout. If you want to see results from exercise, you must push yourself to make a change in your fitness routine. I had a hard time with this after I had my daughter. Fast forward to a year later, and I was still heavier than I was pre-baby. I was eating right and was exercising often, but the truth was that I need to increase my workout intensity. It was hard, there was a lot of sweat and sore muscles, but when I saw results it was all worth it and now I feel better than ever. Here are my top 10 ways to push yourself through a workout:

Basically, when exercising your body will start to say, “Hey, I’m not used to this, this is uncomfortable.” and you feel like stopping. Next time you get this feeling, encourage yourself to run a little further, hold a yoga pose a little longer, or do a few more reps. If I stopped running every time I felt like it, I would not be able to run a mile and I would never see results. I have often found that when I feel like stopping, I say to myself, “just a little further”. Often I end up running much further than I thought I could, sometimes a mile or two longer.
