DO YOU NEED MOTIVATION OR A HABIT?

For those keeping track, it is Monday, so let’s get motivated to crash our goals this week! Sounds great, right? Yet it is not as easy as it sounds. Motivation is an emotion which recedes sooner than anticipated without getting you anywhere. Of course, you can be pumped with motivation for a few weeks, however, it also will fade away. Habit on the other hand is a behaviour that is repeated regularly. So what to do? There are multiple approaches you can take in getting motivated and creating habits, here are a few things which helped me to get started or continue pushing forward:

🤜🏻Use motivation as a fuel to create a habit,
🤜🏻Set small and achievable goals,
🤜🏻Make a conscious choice to do or not to do something,
🤜🏻Have a clear trigger - action - reward path.

There is no magic pill or secret recipe, you need to find what works for you and develop your own system. You know yourself better than I or any other Instagram guru do. Find what drives you and get moving team.

⚡️Getting the most out of every session is possible, you just need take a second, stop, and check your form. ⚡️

Working out feels amazing! Nothing can beat that post workout feeling of accomplishment and sweaty glow. Yet when our form sucks, no matter how hard we workout, all our efforts can do more harm than good. Instead of getting stronger and leaner, you get overstrained muscles, tears and acute injuries. Poor form might not cripple you right away, but it definitely will delay your progress for months.

The 3 exercises I picked today have the same theme and can be performed at home or at the gym. Did you notice which body part suffers the most? Do you engage wrong muscles to get more reps in? Try, and let me know if you felt a difference in your from 🙌🏻
