If you’ve never joined a gym, or if you haven’t exercised in a long time and have no idea how to start, here are 5 tips to help you stay motivated on this new journey of a FIT life. Start a healthy life.

Choose a basic routine

Perform multi-joint exercises (squats, bench press, deadlift, military press) and do not despair or try to exercise with all the devices that are in the gym. It is very common to see newbies sign up and from day one it seems like they want to end up passed out. The important thing is not to train more but to train better. If you are a beginner, ideally your routine should last one hour.

Set REALISTIC goals

If you are overweight or obese, keep in mind how long it took you to accumulate that fat and how long you have lasted without exercising. With this, you can consider that your weight loss and your muscle gain will not happen overnight. In some cases, you will see the first results after 6 weeks. A realistic goal will keep you motivated as it will be achievable.

Train with a partner

This tip is for those who find the gym boring. A partner who has goals similar to yours can help you commit. The gym buddy will be there with you and can make observations while he urges you to give more and what better than having someone to help you get those last repetitions of the chest press, don’t you think? More than anything else you will feel motivation and commitment.

Organize your schedules

Let’s be honest, one of the main reasons we skip the gym is because we say we don’t have enough time. Well, if you already know what your Achilles heel is, then organize your week from Sunday. If you already know your schedules perfectly and establish your commitments for the week, you will be able to find a way to escape that hour destined for the gym. Success in a training program is in the frequency with which you train, that is, less frequency, less results. When you are a beginner, 3 days will be enough to start and gradually increase the training days.

Remember why you started

It is very common that for the first 3 months most of those who join the gym end up leaving it. This is because for one reason or another you give priority to other things and put your training aside. At this point, when you are on the verge of quitting, remember why you started, review each and every reason why you signed up for the gym. Remember that you are tired of being overweight, flaccid, or weak. The main motivation to continue and the most valuable will always come from you, from your desire to want to change your body.

I hope you take into account some or all of these points to start a healthy life with all the desire and not only achieve that goal that you have to look spectacular but also acquire permanent healthy habits.
