Weight Loss Tip

In simple terms, you loose weight when you use more energy during the day, than you take in in the form of food. So, if you want to loose weight, try eating a little less and training a little more. It may be all your body needs to make a difference.

Motivation and Fitness

I have to admit that I actually do go through stages of not feeling motivated to train. I've actually had a couple of periods in the twelve months that have been particularly difficult.

One was when we moved overseas. Of course there are plenty of reasons (excuses) not to train during a period like this. Bottom line is motivation falls and unless you give it a reason, the mind will come up with plenty of reasons not to train.

What I did was start fanning my motivation, telling myself how much better I would feel mentally and physically and how much more energy I would have.

When I started back at training I started slowly, I didn't want to give myself any other reasons not to train e.g.. injuries or too much delayed onset muscle soreness.

Try it, I hope it works for you.
