Have you ever challenged yourself to accomplish something big in your journey to better health? As most of you know, I just completed a 30 day challenge that I set for myself and it feels great to have achieved that. It gave me the motivation to keep going with future exercise and fitness challenges.
Today’s Tip: Time to challenge yourself
Challenging yourself to accomplish something big is a great motivator to keep going in your journey to a healthier lifestyle. Your can structure your challenge to be as small or big as you want. Exercise and fitness challenges also make you more aware of how strong you really are so go get’em and set a challenge for yourself!
Here are some examples of ways you can challenge yourself:
- Workout at least 30 minutes a day
- Do 50 crunches a day
- Walk 15-30 minutes every day
- Do 3 days of weights/resistance training each week
- Make it a goal to take the stairs and park further away from the store
- Keep an exercise journal to stay accountable
Today I’m thinking about what exercise and fitness challenge I will set for myself for the month of August. I’ll be sure to let you all know so I can stay accountable again.
What will your exercise and fitness challenge be for the month of August?
