Keeping up with workouts


Question Posted Saturday June 22 2013, 11:09 am

From the 1st of July, I'm getting a pass to a gym. Fortunately for me, this gym is 5 minutes from my apartment and it means that I'm hoping to go work out every other day.

Ideally, I need to lose at least 20kgs, but I am not in a rush to do so (as in I don't want to starve or over-work myself)

I'm already eating better - mostly veggies, giving up sugary drinks. But my problem is, how can I motivate myself to go work out every other day and how long can I expect it to be, before I see results?

It might sound pathetic, but I only really reach a motivational state where I see a physical change in my body as well as feeling better and more refreshed - what can I do meanwhile that will motivate me to keep going?

Any input from somebody who has started working out without having really done anything before would be great - your experiences and results, etc :)

It's all in your mind. You have to have a strong mind to motivate yourself and stay on top of things. Tou know those urgea you have to sit down and stuff your face? You have to keep your goal in mind and be stronger than your urges. Aometimes writing out your workout plan down in a checklist form it may be easier for you. There's really nothing that will motivate you more than yourself unless you have a friend to workout with and they can help you stay motivated. Good luck! :)
