Don’t look like a hot mess
Then get some new workout gear for fitness motivation! Okay, you might think I am crazy for saying this, but I really believe that if you get some cute workout clothes and comfortable workout shoes, you will be more likely to workout and workout hard. I know, I know……it sounds a little silly, especially if you are working out in the comfort of your own home, but trust me, cute clothes really do help with fitness motivation. Sometimes it is nice and easy to be able to throw on your sweats from high school and that old, t-shirt full of holes but I actually think that putting a little more thought into your workout gear can help you feel more motivated.
I am not suggesting that you need to go out and spend your paycheck on cute fitness clothes (because they can get expensive) or heading out for a hike with a friend with a full face of makeup, but I am suggesting you put a little bit of thought into what makes you look and feel good. You don’t go into work wearing a suit that is 3 sizes too small or 3 sizes too big? And you go to work to perform, do your best, succeed for your boss. Now it is time to succeed for yourself as well, in the health and fitness area. The new wardrobe will help make you feel more confident and might even push you to do a few extra reps. Still think I am crazy? Just try it! Go look online at some of my favorite places for workout gear: Under Armor, Adidas, Nike, Lulemon, Athleta, Target, and Dick’s sporting goods for some great sales. The internet is a great source for finding those cute, attractive, flattering workout pants and shirts.
