You already failed your New Year’s fitness resolution, didn’t you? That’s already true for most of you or soon will be.
Odds are you made the same mistake that every fitness newbie makes – you tried to start running or lifting weights. The problem is that a lot of you don’t LIKE running or lifting weights. You like the idea of what exercise might do for you – you could be thinking of weight loss or that chiseled body you’ve always dreamed of – but if you hate the process, you’re not going to get there.
Here’s the special, secret sauce to success: find a form of exercise that you like.
Ice skating. Hockey. Tennis. Basketball. Football. Dance. Cycling. Swimming. Hiking. Calisthenics. Boxing. Martial arts. Wrestling. Climbing. Baseball. Archery. Skateboarding. Snowboarding. Frisbee. Fencing. The list goes on and on.
Here’s the best part: if exercise is fun, then each workout is teaching your brain that exercise is fun and rewarding. A year from now, after two hundred such lessons, if you still care to do that marathon, you might find that now it’s actually fun, because you put in time and effort to rewire your brain to make that true.
Make 2022 a year of fun instead of a year of drudgery and you might just succeed.
