Do you find yourself struggling to stay motivated to go to the gym on a regular basis? If so, I wold like to suggest a few tips that I hope will help you keep on track!

1. Find a workout buddy. Find someone who wants to achieve similar goals and can go during the same times as you. You’ll be less likely to put-off working out if you know someone is counting on going with you. Workout buddies can also help push and challenge you, but remember, its a two-way street!

2. Do it for yourself. You have to want to make physical changes or to keep a healthy lifestyle for yourself. If you are working out for others, then you will find yourself in a continual battle to stay motivated. When working out, workout because you love yourself.

3. Push yourself. It’s easy to go to the gym, sit on a bike and pedal away for 30 minutes without breaking much of a sweat. If you are going to the gym, you might as well make the most of it. If you bring a book or magazine, you’ve already lost the battle. You should leave feeling like you pushed yourself and made a good use of your time.

4. Mix it up. Good workouts can happen outside of the gym. Get a good cardio session by going on an outdoor hike, playing an outdoor sport or by going on an an outdoor run. Sometimes you just need a little change to help you stay motivated.

5. Make a list. Sometimes writing your fitness goals down will help you stay motivated. It helps to visualize what you are trying to achieve by working out. Try to read your list before working out to remind yourself why you are there.

6. Stay Committed. Determine how many days a week you want to workout and aim to be consistent. Seeing results is a great way to stay motivated but you’ll never see results if you don’t have a consistent routine.

6. Don’t get discouraged. If you aren’t seeing results right away, don’t give up. If you stick with a consistent routine, you should start seeing results within 3 months. If you aren’t getting the results you want, try making adjustments to your diet. Remember, eating healthy is just as important as working out.
