]]> Going to the gym is one of the most popular choices for exercise. It’s non-weather dependent, and you can choose from a huge range of exercises depending on what you enjoy, from cardio to strength training. However, many people understandably find it hard to stay motivated at the gym. If this is something you struggle with, then here are some tips to help you stay on track.

Try Changing Your Schedule

If you usually head there after work, then try going in the morning instead to see how it feels, and vice versa. It may be that changing your timings helps you feel more excited about your session and gain a fresh perspective on it.

Buy Some New Gear

You don’t have to spend loads but try simply buying a new gym top or headband. Treating yourself to some new clothes or equipment will help you feel more keen to test it out at the gym. 

Buddy Up

Ideally, you could head to the gym with someone else as this can really help to keep you both motivated. However, if this isn’t possible then try just having someone that you keep updated about your gym sessions. Having someone to talk to about your progress will help you stay on track.

]]> We all have to face bad mental health days from time to time and it’s perfectly natural to skip your workout once they come. On the other hand, physical activity can improve your mood when you’re feeling low, as long as you keep these three things in mind.

Do Something Fun

Don’t force yourself to do a workout you don’t enjoy on your bad mental health days. The best way to improve your mood is to do something that you actually enjoy, whether it’s running or swimming or simply hiking or dancing around your house.

Do Something Small

There’s no need to put pressure on yourself to do a full workout when you’re feeling low. If you can summon the strength to work out for five or ten minutes from the comfort of your home, it’s still better than nothing. Find a workout on YouTube that suits you and make sure it’s not too intense.

Just Get Out

Your priority during bad mental health days shouldn’t be to do an intense workout but to simply get out and move your body. Getting outside and being surrounded by nature can be good for your emotional well-being because it’s a great way to relax and distress, so do your best to get out of your bed and go for a short walk.
