How to get motivated to exercise?
Ok, I will admit, I really have to push myself to workout and exercise. BUT I love that feeling afterward when your body feels stronger and your mind feels invigorated.
Does anyone have any suggestions for how to get more excited about exercising?
I appreciate all suggestions :)

I withhold something I enjoy and can only do it while I'm exercising or after.....things like listen to a favorite podcast or read People magazine...small, but enjoyable.

Love this idea! I am going to give it a try too! Thank you so much for sharing!
I make a goal and commit to it. Put it on a calendar so I can physically check it off after I complete the task - it feels satisfying.
also start small with a plan for example, walk three days a week after work.
then I would pick an activity that counts as exercise that you enjoy personally - going for a walk, walking a dog, ten minute jog, participating in a gym class like Zumba in person or Yoga videos on YouTube alone in the comfort of your own space with no one to judge.
when you look forward to it the activity becomes easier to commit to.
ask a friend to join you so you can chat while you do it and suffer together

I think physical results! Seeing the results personally and from others is a very strong motivator for me to consistently go out and do it. I love personal growth <3

So true! Once our clothes start to fit differently, that is def a great motivator! Thanks so much for your feedback! I appreciate you!
