Organized Fitness Routine To Motivate Your Movement Throughout The Year
Year after year after year after year, society’s top New Year’s Resolutions include improving physical fitness. Year after year we all pledge to eat better and workout more. January starts off strong, often with the forgoing of alcohol and sweets. We get busy with work again then February comes around and we’re back at it with holiday themed chocolates and candies and late hours at the office. Summer starts approaching and we go HAM - giving it our all to get swimsuit ready. We indulge throughout and lead into the Fall months ready to tone down our activities and layer up. Before we know it we’re heading back into November and December, which are full of parties, food, and family time. And thus we have the vicious habitual cycle that continues to derail our most intentional efforts to get and stay healthy.
Let’s just toss all that to the wayside. Let’s make a change! Let’s make movement a daily habit. Even just 15 minutes a day can make a tremendous difference in how you look AND feel. The more we focus on the habit, and the less we fester over results, the more likely we are to be successful in adding more movement into our daily life.
My personal golden workout rule has always been :: NO MORE THAN TWO DAYS IN A ROW OFF.
This keeps me accountable, while still allowing me some flexibility and grace. Some days I just can’t motivate myself and that’s OK! But if I am not feeling it Monday and Tuesday I end up having a 10-hour work day topped off with making dinner and putting the baby to sleep, then my first priority for Wednesday is blocking off time to exercise.
Find a golden rule that works for you. Maybe it’s going for a 10-minute walk no matter the weather. Maybe it’s sleeping in your workout clothes to be ready to get it in first thing in the morning. Maybe it’s purchasing a membership, online or at a gym or studio, to remind you your health and wellness is worth the investment.
Below I’ve broken down my organized daily fitness routine for the year. I’m an at-home fitness gal so you’ll find it includes workouts from my favorite on-demand workout programs. I’ve also listed out five exercises for each day you can do at ZERO cost with Zero equipment, so there’s absolutely no excuse for you to say you can’t do it. YOU CAN and YOU WILL.
