If you find yourself missing or skipping your physical activity session:
Ask yourself why?

Boredom?
|
- Change your routine!! This is not hard to do. Do different aerobic activities, work out at different intensities, and use different machines for your resistance training. Cross-training is a concept in which you do different activities each time you work out. Some days you walk, other days you jog, or stairclimb or ride the bike. This is a great way to avoid boredom, by constantly mixing up your workout.
- Another great solution to prevent boredom is to have a workout partner. This is someone you exercise with either all of the time, or sometimes-whenever it is convenient for both of you. Use each other to motivate yourselves to work out. Realize that when you miss a workout, the other person will be alone. It is okay to put a little pressure on yourself.
- Use whatever solution will keep you motivated to continue exercising.
