Workout excuse: 4 reasons why you’re bored

There’s something you can do about your boredom: figure out why you don’t want to exercise and what’s making your workouts boring so that you can get motivated and once again enjoy getting in shape.

1 | You don’t have a goal or your goal isn’t very well defined

If you’ve never thought about setting a goal to get yourself motivated to exercise, now’s the time to do it. So, having fun while exercising might be your top priority, but do you quickly lose motivation and stop working out regularly because you haven’t se...

2 | Your workout needs more variety

What’s more unmotivating than monotony? Do you think the free version of your FizzUp workout program is boring? For you, exercise might be starting to turn into a hassle because you’ve stopped seeing results and are tired of doing the same exercises over and over again. The more unpredictable your workout is, the less bored you’ll be! It might be time for you to sign up for FizzUp PRO!

3 | Why exercise is useful

You might get bored when you exercise because you’ve never done things for yourself and don’t see why exercise is useful. But, exercise has many benefits for your health, which all have an important influence on your quality of life. Your wellness shouldn’t come last. Exercise is a personal activity that should relieve you of stress. It helps you fight sadness and anxiety, be in a better mood and improve your physical fitness so that you can handle anything. It boosts your self-confidence and gives you a way to escape your everyday life. So what are you waiting for? Get away from it all with regular physical activity!

3 | Have a little patience!

If you’re not a patient person, this could explain why you quickly lose interest in sticking with an exercise routine over the long term. But you should know that boredom isn’t necessary a bad thing. Actually, being able to cope with it so as to avoid aggressive behavior is a good thing. Boredom creates a type of “positive” frustration, which impels you to find solutions for overcoming it. And giving up isn’t one! There’s a reason why your FizzUp fitness training is repetitive: it’s what makes you progress. The more you repeat an exercise, the more you build your muscular endurance. Muscular endurance is the ability to repeat an exercise against a resistance for an extended period of time. You’ll do several sets of the same exercise for a certain number of repetitions in order to beat your record number when you do your next evaluation. This is what it takes to get results.

Your action plan: Stop saying “no” to exercise!

Now’s the time to put an action plan into place so that you can say ”goodbye” to boredom and your favorite workout excuse: “Exercise is boring!”.

#1: Understand the point of exercise

You might get bored during your workout because you don’t see the point in doing it. Exercise not only has an impact on your body, but also on your mind. In today’s society, faster technology, transportation and trade makes our everyday life easier, but we now don’t move like we used to because of this fact. We don’t need to move in order to reach a decent standard of living anymore. Some studies have shown that a lack of physical activity has led to the decline in the activation of certain areas of the brain linked to pleasure, motivation, reward and strategy. These areas of the brain secrete hormones that influence your mood. Inactivity would explain the steady climb in depression in western countries. When you outdo yourself, go beyond your limits and step up your level of physical activity, you have a direct impact on your wellness and happiness. You’ll be calmer and feel better in both your body and mind. You’ll enjoy your surroundings and your life when you become your own hero. With FizzUp, you’ll look on the bright side of life!

#2: Get serious

You need to make sure that you’ve chosen the goal that’s right for what you currently want to achieve so that exercise, boredom and monotony stop going hand in hand. The exercises in your FizzUp workout program are adapted to suit the goal you choose. Make sure that you do the exercises in your evaluation correctly at the beginning of each level. If you don’t take it seriously and don’t do it to the fullest extent of your ability, the exercises included on your new level won’t be right for what you’re physically capable of. You might lose motivation or get bored if your workout is too easy.
