Get Ready to Spice up your boring workout
Boredom will kill any workout routine. Who really wants to work out on the same machines doing the same reps every day? It gets to be so very boring, that you lose allmotivation to work out in the first place. This is an indication that your body is craving for new and adventurous ways to workout.
Vary your fitness routine
By varying your workout routine you will be able to break the monotony and at the same time gain the advantage of working out different muscles. This way you won't end up with a super big butt and great abs. You will be well toned all over. By varying your exercise routine you will be crashing through the fitness barriers that arise every so often. You will be jumping over hurdles of fitness plateaus. When you have been working out for so long you suddenly stop losing weight. Even though you know you need to lose more weight, your body is not responding. That's why you need to vary your workout routine. Your body is craving new and adventurous ways to work off that weight. Your muscles are all muscled out; they can't gain anything by doing the same exercises anymore. That's why you have to try something new.
Check out suggestions to spice up your training routine:
Get a bag: This one is my favorite. Bring a punching bag and installed it in a room . Once a week, beat the crap out of this thing until you can't raise my arms. This can be great for a cardio workout, your arms, and even your legs (you know, if you stick and move..).
Toss the medicine ball: The medicine ball has been used as an athletic training aid for decades in Europe, but only in recent years has the value of medicine ball training been recognised in the United States. Grab a medicine ball and lie on your back in a comfy spot near the TV. When you un-Tivo (playback) your favorite show, toss the medicine ball in the air and catch it each time something common happens.
Row away the calories: If you have a lake near by,rowing back and forth even in the smallest of lakes of a crazy workout. You will feel burn in your arms. If you're lucky, you'll give up on the shore as opposed to sitting in the middle of the lake where there is no wake to push you in. Rowing in the water beats the elliptical.
Workout in twosomes or groups: working out in twosomes or groups is instant motivation. If you "don't wanna", your peer or group will force you to go. The key is agreeing in the beginning that if force is needed, force will occur. I'd bet that you are not the only one in the group to come up with a lame excuse one morning!
