Do you use excuses to not workout ?
Often or once in a while ?
Let us know :)










Excuses Don't Work Anymore

Quit your excuses already! Write down the three most common excuses you use for skipping a workout. Next to them, write a solution for each. For "I don't have enough time," you could write, "I'll get up an hour earlier to fit my workout in." For "I'm too tired at the end of the day," you could write, "I'll do my workouts first thing in the morning to get them out of the way." For "I can't afford a gym membership or a trainer," you could write, "I can borrow exercise DVDs from the library for free." Post the list on your mirror and get moving!

Good ideas. I am not in that mode anymore. I understand it can be hard to start though. It has to be me to just start things going. Nobody is going to do this for me. If I do not start, things will not get started. Just like my garden, if I do not start with one or two weedings, more weeds will clutter and overwhelm and then I will be frustrated that I did not start something. It is not too late though. I can still keep going.

Nope..no excuses..when I don't do my walking exercises it's because I'm being a lazy bum and not feeling like getting into the car, driving to the store where I walk, and doing it. Lazy bum I tell ya!!
