3 Questions to keep you Motivated.

We can all struggle during a work out to keep going when you're starting to ache, but asking yourself some simple questions can be the key to keep you going at the gym.

1. What do I want to look like? - Ultimately the point of exercising is to keep fit and healthy, but an active work out is a great way to improve your figure and stay slimmer. So think about how or who you want to look like and how you will go about getting to that point. If you want better abs, don't stop when doing your crunches! If you want to improve your posture don't lose patience with your yoga poses! It's all about finding a focus and keeping it. I think about my blog and what advise I want to give from my work out experiences, people often ask me health related questions about my diet and fitness and that keeps me going to show them what a good lifestyle can do. Staying positive is important to this question because asking yourself this shows you're willing to get there, and if you're willing you will. 
2. How will I feel if I stop? - I hate feeling guilty, whether it's because I had an indulgence on a pizza, because I didn't complete my work out or because I haven't been putting the effort into my fitness regime, stopping isn't something you want to do. Tired of starting over? Don't give up in the first place. If you know that stopping will make you feel guilty or you will regret not going on that run when you're bored then you mustn't stop.
3. When am I going to..? - Think about healthy foods in a positive manner, so many people are put off healthy foods because they think it will be too difficult or boring. That's not the case! When am I going to work out next? When am I going to have some water? When am I going to schedule eating some fruit? If you plan ahead when you should eat and when you want to work out, achieving fitness goals is far more realistic. For me I aim to eat breakfast by 9am, a mid day snack (fruit) by around 2pm and a light evening meal no later than 8pm. These little when questions keep you focused on staying in line with your goals.
