GET CREATIVE TO STAY MOTIVATED
— Zoe Modgill, trainer and co-founder, Studio 60 “Never give yourself the option to opt out. Motivation isn’t easy, but remember that consistency will get you to the place you want to be, physically and mentally. If you’re in a rut, take time out for walks or go on a fitness holiday, like a trek or a Muay Thai camp in Phuket. Pick what drives you, but don’t give yourself more than a week off.
I often set-up mini challenges to stay committed and focussed on my exercise regime. I switch things by doing a group class or buddy up for a synchronised workout. Sometimes training outdoors serves a different set of challenges and keep things interesting. Simply changing your music playlist also makes a big difference. You can also take on a new skill-based workout, like dancing, kickboxing, aerial yoga or rock climbing. This change in routine could help you break through a weight-loss plateau and even prevent muscle overuse.”
RECOVERY IS PRIORITY
