2. Find a workout partner to keep you motivated and showing up for your workouts.
3. Plan your workouts in advance and be sure to work in variety so you don’t get bored. Do research online for some ideas.
4. Sign up and train for a race in 2014.
5. Commit to a morning workout by packing your gym bag or set out your workout clothes the night before. invite someone to join you! It really does make getting out of bed easier and sets the tone for the rest of the day!.
6. Workout at work when possible! I have one client who has the nurses where she works for doing lunges down the halls!!!!
7. Treat yourself to a personal training session once a month.
8. Try a fitness app. I recommend My Fitness Pal or Lose It. Both are effective for tracking calories and activity.
9. Set up a small (and inexpensive) home gym with a mat, some light dumbbells, a jump rope and try one new, at-home workout per week. DVD's are also an inexpensive way to get a workout in.... Invite a family member or friend to join you!
10. Plan to meet up with friends or family and go for a hike, walk, play some family games such as bowling, volleyball etc.
11. Do jumping jacks, crunches, squats, lunges or push-ups every time your favorite television programs cut to commercial break. And don’t cheat by fast forwarding through them if they’ve been recorded.
12. Take the stairs once each week if you visit a building with an elevator regularly
