Although dancing isn't always respected in the world of fitness, it's very beneficial. Your routine should mostly include strengthening workouts but, you're also allowed to mix it up.
Dancing helps to tone your figure and it's also a great mood booster. You can try and sign up for dance sessions near you or simply check online for what's available if you don't want to leave the house.
Explore your adventurous sideHaving fun with fitness requires you to think outside the box. If adventure has never been your thing, you should probably give it a second shot now that you have specific fitness goals you're working towards.
You don't have to go for something extreme actually. If adventure for you means going for swimming or jogging in a park, then explore that and see what suits you.
Create a diet that you loveDieting can be quite restrictive and that's not something that is enjoyable for most people.
If you're tired of having plain oatmeal for example, why not try adding some flavour with cinnamon or dried fruits. If you don't want to drink sodas and sugary juices, try pair cold blends of herbal teas.
There are really no limits to this.
Enjoy your breaksYou shouldn't feel guilty for prioritizing your breaks on your journey. Breaks allow your body and mind to recover so they're absolutely essential.
Don't pressure yourself to work out six or seven times a week to get where you want to be because it will only kill your motivation in the long run.
Being consistent four times a week is better than exhausting yourself quickly and quitting in the end.
Reward yourselfRewards are a smart way to trick your brain. This usually works because it's a distraction when you need to push yourself to do something difficult.
You can tell yourself that at the end of the month if you stay consistent, you will go for a massage or treat yourself to a new dress.
