Dreading your workout? Here are 3 ways to get motivated.

1. Check in with your favorite health hero
When I’m not in the mood to work out, I check out Chalene Johnson's instagram for a little inspiration. Reading about someone else’s motivation and successes always seems to get me moving. Plus, I usually end up finding a new workout routine, recipe, or piece of advice that further inspires me to get my sweat on!

2.Create a game plan for your workout
If I don’t start my workout with a game plan, I lose focus and inevitably don’t get the best results. Let’s just say, there has been more than one occasion when I’ve wandered aimlessly around the gym and made half-hearted attempts at exercising. Now, I make sure to plan exactly what I’m going to do during my workout– whether it’s a 30-minute interval run  on the treadmill or a Full body cross fit inspired workout– so I have a plan of attack, which helps me stay focused and motivated throughout my workout.

3.Listen to your playlist before you start your workout
Music is a great way to pump me up for a sweat session, but I sometimes find that I have trouble even starting my workout. The solution: Playing upbeat tunes (I love dance music) before I start working out. The music gives me a boost and helps me power through my workout!
