Motivation / / December 19, 2019
There is scientific evidence that the pleasure of sport can be attributed to genes. A recent study published in the The Journal of PhysiologyIt revealed that it is possible to deduce the form of mice predisposed to exercise.
After crossing selected individuals study the brain activity of subjects showed that one group mice exercise is helpful and engaged often, while the other does not show such activity.
Of course, people are very different from the mice, and there are many reasons why exercise may seem to you dull and hateful occupation. Yet it is not necessary to deny the fact that genetics plays a role in this.
So, if you're unlucky and you hate exercise, you will be more difficult to force myself to start. But the good news is you will be able to exercise regularly without experiencing him a fiery passion.
And another thing: hatred of exercise can not be considered your personal failure. Eventually, the treadmill was originally designed as an instrument of torture, you should not blame yourself if you so her and perceive.
Yes, you can not do anything with their feelings and preferences, but you can take responsibility for their actions. As a rule, laziness that keeps people from exercising, starts in the mind, not the body. People are looking for alternative explanations for their reluctance to instead recognize the problem; sorry for themselves instead to develop a plan to overcome laziness.
If you still want to start doing, stop feeling sorry for yourself and come up with an explanation, tune in and follow the plan.
Choose the right kinds of activities to achieve their goals
Many people believe that run - a cure for all diseases and problems with the figure. "I need to lose weight... mileage marathon think I!" "I want to be more pliable and get rid of back problems. Will take part in the marathon! "" I have a rash persists. It is necessary to buy a treadmill. "
Running is so popular not only because it requires little or no investment, easy and natural to man, but also because, that he had been associated with the beginning of the exercise, with the overcoming of ourselves, "Just do it", "Start, it's so just"…
In fact, running is not for everyone. Most people who have decided to go in for sports, do so in order to lose weight. Needless to say, it will be difficult to run a complete man? This may push him away forever from the sport, but in small quantities does not give practically no results.
This does not mean that you should not choose the run. Run, if you really like it, or if you want to pump endurance. If you start to engage in to lose weight, and hate to run, choose other exercises.
For example, those who are overweight and lead sedentary lifestyles, can replace running to walking, take the time to strength training in the gym or train at home, doing exercises with the weight of his body - push-ups, curl and so on.
Find your achievement to create habits
The best applications force users to create a habit and use them every day. One of the good ways to do this - the concept of activation, the magical "aha", after which a person begins to use the product continuously.
For example, Facebook Activation - is to add seven friends for ten days, and have Dropbox - upload your first file. The same approach can be applied to the exercises.
When you have chosen the type of activity, whether it be yoga, running, weight training, boxing or something else, get one achievement that attracts you most. If you choose weight training, it may have the ability to do more push-ups in one go, or better carry your favorite exercise, such as dumbbell bench press on his shoulders. If you want to develop in the race, it can be the best indicators of the 10-kilometer race and the best time in the women's short track.
If you find it difficult to measure their achievements, try to make an effort to evaluate on a scale from one to ten. For example, if you started longer walk, Consider the time that you walk briskly until you feel tired about's seven on a ten point scale.
The concept of activation explains why many group courses are ineffective when it comes to regular attendance. Catching up in the group, it is difficult to find a personal activation. Moreover, in the group you have to follow a prescribed rate of development, and not his own.
Whatever you choose to activate, remember, you first need to set minimum achievement - to add a few push-ups in the usual approach, win a few seconds for a jog.
Despite the fact that the achievements will be small at first, the activation is of great importance, because it makes the exercises regularly. After all, a sense of accomplishment after school are not enough to deal with on a regular basis. First, it helps, but then fizzles, especially for those who hate the sport.
Do not be fooled into thinking that once you love sports and you do not have to force yourself. That can not happen.
Activate and enhance
When you have identified your achievement to activate, measure their basic features: Learn how push-ups you can do in one go now or how much time you need to run 10 kilometers. Just do not overwork.
Next, find reliable information about the program for the beginner. Program drawn coaches, much better than what you can make yourself. Just make sure you choose your program includes exercises to activate. Or better yet, first select a program for beginners, and then find it in their achievement for activation.
After a week of classes compare their performance with the initial conceived to activate. You will surely see an improvement.
It will be your little victory: you become better, and it does not took long months - took place only one week! Celebrate it, and then continue to get better week after week.
And as you are forced to work yourself if you do not want to?
