It's hard to argue about the benefits of exercise. We constantly hear about her from nutritionists, coaches and all kinds of beauty specialists who insist on the need to be constantly on the move. Scientists are also focusing attention on this. But people often give up any sport for various reasons. At the same time, many people realize that they are inactive, begin to engage in fitness, but leave the gym very quickly without achieving any results. Why is this happening and how to deal with the urge to run home to your favorite chips and watch TV soap operas?
It is impossible to overestimate the benefits of regular exercise, which improves not only physical but also morale. It is not for nothing that they say: in a healthy body there is a healthy mind, and in order to maintain excellent shape for a long time, it is important to find time for sports activities. It doesn't matter what it will be - morning jogging, exercises in the home orbit track, dancing or boxing.
More and more people work in offices and move little. As a result, excess weight and depression become their constant companions. Many people try to solve the problem by signing up to the gym, where they plan to work on improving their figures. But good intentions are often doomed to failure for many reasons.
There are many girls and women who come to the rocking chair, to shaping or aqua aerobics with burning eyes, but every day their enthusiasm decreases exponentially, and as a result they give up “thankless” activities. Let's look at the main problems that beginners can face in working on their bodies.
The remoteness of the hall from home
Don't laugh, this is true, especially if you don't have personal transport. It's much easier to pack up and head to a gym just outside your home than one that takes half a day to get to. This is especially true for working women. You may be delighted with the service and pricing policy of the club, which is located at the other end of the city, but if the road to it takes 1, 5 hours, your desire to visit it will decrease day by day.
Unjustified hopes
When you cross the threshold of the gym and walk Naomi Campbell to the simulators, exercise on them regularly until the seventh sweat, you expect a quick weight loss or build up in volume. You hope that after a few weeks of trying, you will look, if not like a supermodel, then at least very likely, that is fundamentally wrong. A month after purchasing a gym membership, you will just see the first results that should inspire you to new achievements.
You cannot lose dozens of extra pounds in a few weeks without serious damage to the body. You may even gain weight, since muscle mass is heavier than fat, but you should not be afraid of this. Measure the volumes, and do not frantically weigh yourself every morning, then it will be possible to say whether there is some progress or not.
Wrong choice of activities
First of all, give yourself an honest answer, what do you like best? Do you like intense cardio workouts? Then you will be bored with yoga. If you love the team spirit - go to group lessons, if you prefer concentration on yourself and a leisurely rhythm - go swimming! Sign up for a few trial sessions to better understand which is closer and more interesting.
Not sure where to start? Ask a trainer to help you and put together a program for you. Bored with doing the exercises on his list? Work with the simulators that you like, but remember that getting at least a few advice will be very useful.
Irrational approach
A few workouts and now you overeat again under the covers, not wanting to leave the house. To reduce this likelihood, buy a subscription not for a month, but at least three, but better - for six months. Approach the question from a practical point of view - if the gym is expensive, it will be many times harder for you to quit working on yourself because you will regret the money spent and your unjustified hopes.
Reassessment of strength
Women demand too much of themselves at the first stage. You should not immediately run 10 kilometers on the track, if before that your maximum activity involved climbing the stairs to the second floor. Four weeks of such a life and you cannot be forced to study under bullets. Temporary and bearable muscle pain is normal for an untrained body, but you should not push yourself out, because your desire to improve your figure will quickly fade away.
You will be maximally motivated to continue training when you see the first results. When body shapes start to please the eye, and friends will notice your weight loss and excellent appearance.
And further. Choose nice clothes, and don't go to fitness in just about anything. Let it be bright things that are pleasing to the eye, and not old stretched pants and a T-shirt. How does this help you build and stay in the hall? No way. But a good mood is guaranteed to you, and it has not bothered anyone yet, especially those who are just starting to train.
