Fit Villains: Selfish, Shameless, Sassy, Fitness.

If you’ve been procrastinating for awhile now, stop thinking about it and just get moving!

It happens to the best of us! Sometimes it’s hard to press ‘reset’. But sometimes all we need is a swift kick in the booty… And we need to learn how to do it ourselves.

The brain is a powerful tool: it can work for you AND against you. If you find that you’re talking yourself OUT to often, stop the talk all together. Know your weaknesses and strengths, and play with what will work for you.

Ways to get moving…

1. Take a walk. Walk faster than you usually do and longer than you usually do.
2. Have a long stretch. Gets the blood flowing and you might feel more energized to do more.
3. Call a friend. Play. Frisbee, the pool, a hike, basketball, badminton, tag, water balloon fights etc.
4. Yoga. If the thought of a grueling gym session is unappealing, try a less intense and short yoga routine instead.
5. Get dressed. Workout clothes, shoes, gear. Put it all on: see how you feel!
6. Just push play. Dvd’s require little to no thinking. Allow yourself to go ‘half-assed’ at first, get some blood pumping, and see if you can’t push a little harder after 5-10 minutes.
