Many would agree that it is much easier to gain weight than it is to lose weight. The same goes for exercise; it is much easier not to do it than to take the time to do it.
If you are currently on your fitness journey, I congratulate you. You are taking steps towards leading a healthier life. If you have yet to start a fitness regimen, what is holding you back? Why haven't you started?
Chances are, you probably have a reason why you haven't been exercising. In my opinion any reason not to work out is an excuse. Excuses will keep you from living a healthier life, and they are a way to shift the blame from yourself.
When someone comes up with excuses, the only one standing in their way to a healthier life is themselves. They are keeping themselves from exercising. It doesn't matter how little free time you have, exercising can always fit into a schedule.
Excuses like, "I'll do it tomorrow", just delay and prevent you from getting anything done. After all, when tomorrow comes, the same excuse is often used. Someday never comes, so today is always the best day to start if you want change.
Don't put it off any longer. It is hard to exercise, and it may bring you pain to start a fitness regimen. However, when you don't do it, you are hurting yourself and your body, so the pain of exercising is worth overcoming.
You can start making healthier decisions right this very moment. Make it a goal that from this point on you are going to begin to make better decisions about your health.
Don't want to exercise? Just tell yourself that you'll just do it for five minutes. Anyone can exercise for five minutes, it's easy. Once five minutes is up, you'll most likely want to keep going, but if you don't, just tell yourself "five more minutes".
It takes time to establish a habit. The idea is to continue to exercise and eat healthy, and if you fall off the horse for a day, instead of falling back to your old ways, jump back on the horse and keep trotting along. Don't let a few days of unhealthy choices keep you from continuing your course. Stay on your journey towards better health and keep pushing forward, because the journey never ends.
What's your excuse for not exercising? What's keeping you from starting to get in shape today? |
