3 Ways to Stay Motivated to Move 🏋️‍♂️

🏋️🤸 Foolproof things I do to stay MOTIVATED to move!

Dragging from the summer heat?

We all know our bodies need to move, but making it happen every day can be tough. Here are some things I do to stay motivated to move my body and stay active every day. Maybe one of these will work for you!

💞 Remember My Why

This is so key. I won’t do something unless I actually have a meaningful reason to do it. I have a list of reasons I want to stay healthy and active, which keeps me excited and on track.

📈 Track My Progress

Everyone does this differently. You can count your steps and activity on a wearable device or just check off days you exercise on a paper calendar. Seeing that progress is a great motivation.

🏆 Reward Myself

Sometimes it can be as simple as knowing that I get to have a relaxing shower after working out. This is a great way to stay positive while exercising.

We all go through slumps, but the benefits of staying active are so worth it—from better sleep to a calmer mood to more focus.
