You come in from a long day at the office, and you want to get a workout in, but you can’t find the motivation. Or maybe you think you have the motivation but “life” is getting in the way of your workout as you feel you have too much on your plate to fit it in.
Making your workout a priority and finding ways to fit it into your schedule will offer you a host of health benefits and make you feel like you’ve got your mojo back.
Working out will be a lot easier if you view it as a gift you give to yourself versus a distasteful activity you have to get through. Think about your health and vitality — by your working out, you are treating yourself as a priority. And coming from a place of self-love.
Studies show that regular exercise changes the brain to improve memory and thinking skills.[1] So if you’re using the excuse that work is taking over too much for you to have time to work out, think of your workout as a part of your workday. You’re helping your brain be sharper at work.
