In the summer I am all about r&r, don't get me wrong - but, it is still important to stay healthy and active throughout the summer, so I have come up with three key tips on how to have motivation to exercise!
1. Create a Pinterest Board - This is definitely the simplest and easiest step. I have a whole board labelled, "Get Fit." with all different workouts as well as tips and tricks to stay healthy! {click here to check it out!} I honestly had no idea there were so many different workouts you could do for all different parts of your body!

2. Set a Goal - I'm not saying this in terms of losing but instead gaining. I have seen a dozen different calendars and planners for workouts on Pinterest like the one shown. I really want to do one of these because personally, for me - once I start something I need to finish it, so I will stay motivated and complete the month. For example, even though I am very active, a couple years ago I could barely do a plank... But, I decided to create my own workout where each time I would workout I would add an additional amount of time, whether it was five or ten seconds. By the end of this - I was astonished at how much I had improved and learned that: continuously making effort, no matter how little - makes a big difference!

3. Make Exercising Fun - I have recently become OBSESSED with the show Duck Dynasty, and one day I was scrolling through Pinterest and found a workout which correlates to the TV show. {ex. every time Miss Kay makes sweets do ten squats.} I tried this one episode - and it actually was a lot of fun! Another fun way to stay motivated is workout with another person or a small group of friends! You can be working out and catching up with your girlfriends at the same time! #DoubleWhammy
I hope you enjoyed this post and some of these tips you might help you out!
What motivates you?
