Laziness Is No Excuse

I'm sorry I have been M.I.A., but right now school is taking over my life! I am trying to stay on top of my blog but unfortunately I am swamped with work. Hence the delay in posting. Trying to graduate is quite the task, let's just put it that way.

With summer coming up I wanna give you some quick tips on how to resist those tempting lazy days. Keep up with your workout schedule, especially with this weather. Get outside and stay active but remember to enjoy it!

• Find several fun and easy ways to exercise so it won't be a nagging task.
  
• Pick your best time. Choose a type of exercise that can fit smoothly into your schedule such as a brief walk at lunch, before dinner or doing errands.
  
• Have fun. Grab a friend (or friends) and take bike rides, learn to play tennis or golf. Blend more strenuous activities in throughout the week.
• Increase your pace gradually. Start with the fun stuff if you want, then work your way into some harder, demanding workouts.
  
• Don’t miss 3 workouts in a row, that's just creating a bad habit. Make it a solid commitment.
• Don’t let weather or other distractions become excuses to skip exercise.
  
• Work toward a reward such as new athletic shoes, a massage, or club membership. Treats for yourself are just as fun as the rewards you'll see in your body.
  
• Consider fitness a long-term project, build it by keeping weekly goals and then achieve them.
  
• Make working out convenient and accessible, get a few at-home workout videos and don't be tied down to one specific type of exercise.
  
• Think of the benefits while you’re exercising! Motivation baby.
  
• Make your routine a necessity, not a daily decision.

As hard as laziness is to resist, exercise is worth every ounce of energy you put in! You will never regret what you do, only what you do not.
