You are not the only one who hates exercise. There are too few of us who really enjoy sweating at the gym. It requires lots of willpower, time and strength – all the qualities that we need to develop and grow.
Your busy life at work and home might not let you dedicate enough time to sports.
Practice activities that you enjoy
Whatever you enjoy, do it on a regular basis. You need to enjoy your activity to make it your daily habit. Whenever we consult a fitness guru, we hear that our workout routine should include specific exercises and that if we follow a certain program, we will achieve some results. This is just a myth. You need to follow strict rules only if you are planning to become a professional athlete, marathon runner or a bodybuilder. In all other instances you can do perfectly well without boring rules. Your body will be slim and trim if you play your favorite sport or do any physical activity that brings joy – jogging, cycling and even walking. You can work out at home together with your family or on your own. Download a video and repeat after the instructor. If that sounds too boring, join a dance school or yoga classes.
Consider the benefits
If you do sports in moderation, then you can feel all the benefits from the very first day. It takes just a couple of minutes of stretches to feel better! After 10 minutes of exercise you feel that your heart starts pumping the blood and your blood flow improves. It means that your bloodstream delivers oxygen to all body parts. People who work out on a regular basis can boast a healthier cardiovascular system. People who jog, cycle, swim or do yoga do not suffer from stress and tension. No doubt if you do various physical activities, you lose pounds, get slimmer and look better. Even your skin becomes smoother and complexion clearer.
