This is around where your workouts stop feeling new your just going through the motions, its not engaging anymore and really its just feeling downright hard by now.

Do you want your New Years resolution to survive?

Want to keep it up long enough so you can see some results? 90% of what we do in the fitness journey is not a physical challenge but more of a mental challenge. Well the same goes for your workout routine so I need you to get your head back in the game, get motivated and get pumpd because we are going to get some results (need further motivation do what most fitfam does and look at pics to get you going, here).

So if your exercise is regimen is going to continue what is going on inside of your head is what matters. So how do you get your head right you may be asking? Well there are a few tips I will give you here and then also show you some of the products I take when I do feel like this which is normal its just how we react and overcome these small challenges.

Find a fitness buddy!

Having a fitness pal can be a great positive but more importantly an accountability factor. It may not be for everyone how do you know if it would be a good thing? Well, what if your partner outperformed you would you quit or try harder? Would you feel competitive and try pushing yourself harder or would you get roid rage get angry and smash the mirror with a dumbbell? I tend to see these work very effectively so consider it we’ve got so many people at our smoothie bar that meet and end up doing workouts together gosh how I love this industry!

Get a Mantra

(not like the police chief in Bad Boys 2 movie below)

So the trick is when you feel you are leaning away from working out there are runners and serious athletes that use this trick. Here are some suggestions of mantras you could repeat in order to get your mind back in the zone.

I’m going to make this fat cry

I KNOW I CAN

I have so many haters to prove wrong

Go big, Then GO home

Pain is weakness leaving the body

So anyone of these can get my mentally pumpd no matter what because if you think back to when we were infants we were not born with the ability to speak and say mamma, dadda. This came from hearing it day in and day out from our parents which was slowly programming our subconscious mind. Hence, why personal development is so important these days and why you see the most successful people say they do not entertain negative thoughts neither should you . The mind is powerful when you leverage it correctly.
