Real Life Body Fat Loss Motivational Tips
1. We all struggle to lose belly fat and maintain our fitness routines. Below are 11 real life ideas and
motivational tips to help you succeed in your body fat loss goals.
Look Great for Your Big Event
Weddings, Reunions, Vacations… you name it! Looking thin for an important event (and loving the
pictures afterwards) can often be enough motivation to keep up your workouts.
Choose a Workout You Enjoy
If you find you are often "not in the mood" to do your workout, start thinking about what does sound
interesting to you instead. If you need new ideas, try checking out the new workout classes your gym
has to offer, or look for outdoor clubs in your area that you can join.
Consistency
For some people it’s easier to skip working out once they skip a day. You must be consistent and
workout every day of the week, even if your workout only means going for a brisk walk.
Use Your Imagination & Envision Your Success
Visualization is key to success and putting a vision board on the wall in front of the treadmill can help
you get through your run. Envision yourself in a sexy bathing suit and keep going!
Feel Great & Alleviate Your Stress
Stress is just a part of life. You can't avoid it. But you can reduce it by actively taking time to exercise.
Every workout is a little gift to yourself. Embrace the strength and confidence you feel after your
workout. Be motivated by the fact that you’re taking care of yourself. It helps you be more comfortable
in your own skin—and that is both motivational and priceless.
Transform Your Commute
Multi-task if you can and start making your commute your workout. If possible, start commuting on a
bike! If you take the bus, try getting off a few stops early and walking the rest of the way to work. It all
adds up to success!
Consider Exercise Your Escape
Exercise is all about you and treating yourself right. Make it your special get-away each day and you
will cherish the time you spend working out. And if you have kids you know that your workouts not
only help you stay fit, but also allow for "you time” to recharge and de-stress!
Workout Like You’re a Movie Star
Pretend you are going to be in a movie and train like you will have millions of people looking at you on
a Big Screen!
Do Morning Workouts
Try to workout first thing in the morning. That way if something comes up later in the day, you won't
feel stressed about missing your workout.
Train for a Specific Goal
If you need help staying motivated, sign up for an event. Having a specific goal in mind will help you
stay dedicated and on track with your workout plan.
Make your Investment Count
Whether it's a gym membership or a fitness DVD program, make your money count and USE it!
2. Whatever your personal motivation, consistent exercise you love will help you make your workouts a
success and shed unwanted body fat!
