Yesterday I wrote about horrible workouts. Today I want to remind us all that workouts don’t have to be horrible. We just need to find something we like or something we like about what we don’t like much.
It’s easiest, of course, if we happen to like workouts. It doesn’t take much convincing to get me to swim or ski or bike. I’m down to play pickleball or rollerskate or ice skate. For some of us, this means we have to spend a fair amount of time experimenting. We may not take to the first dozen things we try, or it might take a while to find the right instructor.
When we don’t love something (fun fact: I don’t actually love lifting weights), we have to find ways to make it more fun. Doing it with a buddy can help. Fun music goes a long way toward making the time go by. And never discount bribery as an option (although it might be best if the bribe was not edible, for best results.).
We can do this.
