Here is another tip to help you on your fitness journey---Track your work outs! I know it might seem silly, or, even a waste of your time, but it truly helps. I have been logging my workouts everyday since February 22, 2010. I started logging my workouts on my Team Beachbody site, during my 2 rounds on Insanity. After Insanity, even though I could still track my runs on the site, I decided to start tracking my runs and workouts in a journal. I have found that writing everything down, not only keeps me accountable for working out, but also serves as a great reference for seeing what I have done in past workouts. Am I working out harder? The same? Am I increasing my miles? How is my pace? You can set it up anyway you want to and write a summary of your workout as well. I also track my rest days and the days I don't workout. I find that writing down rest day for more than 2 days is really discouraging, so it helps to keep me motivated as well. Here are some pictures of my workout journal:
I don't write a summary of my workout in my journal because I do that on here and on DailyMile.com. I just find it easy to log my runs on DailyMile.com, as I have a great support group on there as well. It doesn't matter how and where you do it...just that you do it! Try it! What do you have to lose? Besides pounds and inches! Nothing! :)
Thanks for reading!
