The reason that most people don’t stick with an exercise routine is that they get bored by it very quickly. Doing a run at six in the morning over the same stretch of ground can get very boring very fast. However, there are things that you can do to make your exercise routine just a little bit more interesting and therefore be able to work out for a longer period of time, and more often, or simply stick with the exercise program longer. Here are four things you can do to make exercise as painless and fun as you can.
Tip Number One: Don’t workout! Play Video games instead! Now, with the advent of the Nintendo Wii, the Playstation Move and the X-Box Kinect, you can get a workout while you play video games. Whether you prefer playing sports like tennis, golf or riding the rapids down a river, you will find a game to do it on these systems. They also come with much more involved fitness games that can take you through a workout while tracking calories, body fat percentage, weight lost and much more at the same time.
So begins the cliches. Yes, the first thing on our list of three things to do to burn fat and get a flat stomach is to do a cardio workout every day, for at least twenty minutes. You can adjust the time depending upon how many calories you are consuming per day and how much you are trying to lose, but a good cardio routine should be part of the equation.
Weight loss is a struggle. Anyone who has even attempted it will tell you that. However, one of the worst feelings that a dieter can get is when they stop losing weight after weeks of months spent dieting, exercising and sticking to it.
