For most people, work consumes much of their time and energy. As a result, the idea of eating right and adding some type of physical workout into that already exhausting regimen can feel like an impossible goal to meet. Having the right tools can help!
Whether you’re working those long shifts at the office or you’re just clocking in for a few hours at a time, you’re fully aware of how physically, mentally, and emotionally beat you feel on a day-to-day basis. Even if you would prefer to relax when you have downtime, and truly believe that working out is the last thing on earth you want to do, you should still give it a try—you’ll feel so much better if you do. Here’s how you can fight back against those tired and lazy feelings throughout the day and add some physical activity into your workday.
We are in the midst of a fitness age—everybody is working out and it’s fantastic. As we busy ourselves in the pursuit of strength and fitness, everywhere from state of the art facilities to the local gym in the butcher shop basement is seeing an upturn in fortunes.
While we are eagle-eye focused on getting bigger, faster, and stronger, we must not forget one essential element of our continuing life and fitness journey: mobility. This is a really important factor in achieving the most we can from every workout and also staying injury-free.
Whether you’re trying to gain muscle, lose weight, live healthier, or improve flexibility, your success begins in your mind. Before your muscles, your gym membership, or your food choices, it starts with your attitude.
Whatever your goal is, whether you’re just starting out or having troubles, remember that your success depends on how you perceive it. Tell yourself you can, and you will. Make a plan, hold yourself accountable, make changes if something isn’t working, forgive yourself if you make mistakes, and celebrate the things you do right. For some people the hard part is starting, for others it’s staying motivated, for some it’s continuing when you fail. Just remember, success will only happen if it starts in your mind.
