What I am about to share with you is one of the most simple, yet overlooked components of a successful fitness programme. Once you get a taste for this, it is something you can re-visit at anytime.
What am i talking about?….discovering your own personal drive.
Your doctor, physio, friend, partner or other family member may have said you need to exercise. This could be for many reasons and here are the obvious ones:
Increase Energy, Improve Health, Lose Weight, Tone Up, Increase Flexibility, Core Strength, Cardio Fitness, Improve Posture, Feel Better Inside, Reduce Pain, Sport Specific, Release Depression.
The list goes on and on and although their suggestions maybe accurate and come with good intentions, their advice is still coming from the outside.
The question is, why do YOU want to exercise?
For lasting success you need to find your own inner motivations.
Without this drive what is going to keep you on track?
The answer is simple, you need to set clear intentions that come from you…from the inside.
This requires a moment of reflection. If you want core strength, what does that mean to you? Are you feeling a lack of strength, a bad back or do you want a better posture? Find this out, then take it one step further to discover how this will benefit your life. Basically you are looking to get more and more information and clarity about your reasons.
