Get out of your comfort zone
Have you ever found yourself at the gym, doing the same old routine
? Doing the same weight sets, climbing on the same cardio machine and working out for the same 20 minutes....
It can get so tiresome, and soon it is hard to find the inspiration to leave your cozy couch and TV remote to go and be bored at the gym.
The solution? Get out of your comfort zone!
Pushing yourself to do things that you don't do day in and day out will stimulate your cell's energy factories, helping you burn more calories and get more out of each work out.
With Strip That Fat, we will not only give you fresh work out and diet ideas, we will be there to give you the support you need to get out there to try new things and push yourself in order to really get the results you want.
Tired of your same old gym routine, for example, or are you intimidated to go to the gym? Book an appointment with a personal trainer (often when you are first joining a gym, they will even offer one or two appointments for free) to learn about the equipment and to discover new workout routines you can do.
*STF TIP: You can burn 33% more calories when you do "super-sets" (which are back to back sets of two different exercises) instead of resting between each exercise. A super-set, for example, could be jumping rope for 1 minute and then immediately switching to doing 15 tricep dips, and then returning to jumping rope for 1 minute.
Hate the gym, but don't know what else you can do? A few ideas you can try are:
* Join a running group
* Dance (Salsa, Jazz, Ballet, Hip Hop, Belly Dancing-You name it!)
* Swim
* Ride Your Bike
* Hike
* Learn Boxing
* Try the Brazilian Dance-Fighting, Capoeira
* Do Yoga
* Do Pilates
* Play Capture The Flag with Friends
* Volunteer and Take a SPCA-ASPCA shelter dog for a walk or run
* Take a Spin/Aerobics Class
* Join A Rowing Group
* Learn to Kayak
There are so many different ways to get exercise into your lifestyle, so exercise should never be something you loathe doing, or something that bores you. It should be fun and exciting!
Remember, push push push. If when you are done your work out, you could get up and do it all over again, you are not going hard enough.
If you are happy with your current workout routine, try stepping it up a little. If you are lifting 10 pound weights, try your next set with 15 pounds. If you are running on the elliptical at level 6, try level 7. If you are riding your bike for 40 minutes, go for an hour next time.
STF TIP: If you are comfortable during your workout, it is time to switch up your routine, or increase your time or weight load.
