Watch Your Language
"STOP WORKING OUT!"
Take a look at the word "work out". Your mind associates those words to mean that you are going to subject your body to some additional form of work until you run out of something (fuel, energy, the will to survive). Rarely does that sound like fun.
Whether you know it or not that simple association is one of the reasons that you continue to have limited success with your physical fitness program.
My suggestion is to change the way you refer to your exercise regimine to something more productive, such as "Training" or "Practice". In either case these words give your activity a positive purpose. These are words that tell your mind and body that you are doing something specific that will improve who you are.
Pay attention to the language you use. It will make a difference in your attitude and your result.
Start today! Train with Purpose.
