How to Maintain Healthy Lifestyle?
Posted 07-09-2014 at 02:35 AM by sallyjackman
Finding the right weight loss program that will help you achieve your fitness goals can be difficult in itself, but what's even more difficult is actually sticking to that program and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. This becomes more difficult year after year and so it's important to keep a close eye on our progress, keep a rough track of our motivation levels, set new goals and more! Throughout this article we'll be giving you some guidelines that you can follow in order to maintain a healthy lifestyle,
Monitoring Your Progress
Monitoring your progress is one of the best ways to ensure that you stay on track in regards to your fitness goals, there are many ways to do this and it can actually be a fun activity. There is nothing better than looking back in your fitness journey only to see that you can now dead lift 45lbs more than you could a month ago!
Setting up a fitness journal is relatively easy as all you really need is a diary/journal and a pen, you could even reduce the requirements even further and stick to spreadsheets on your laptop – you should be able to find a few dozen fitness journal spreadsheet templates online. Some things you will want to monitor will be your weight, body fat percentage, a detailed plan of your workout, weight lifted and also the weight loss , and also your sets and reps for each exercise.
In addition to keeping a fitness journal/diary, many people also like to keep a photo journal and monitor their progress visually either weekly or bi-weekly. You can do this by using a standard camera and taking pictures of yourself, no special tools or equipment is needed. Over time you will start to see the difference and you'll understand why many people love to do this!
Keeping Yourself Motivated
Keeping yourself motivated is probably one of the hardest things to do when it comes to fitness. We can easily get discouraged because we saw someone lift more than us in the gym, or maybe we ate that snack that we shouldn't have, or maybe our we have simply just set unreasonably high standards. Whatever the reason may be, motivation is a crucial factor in any successful fitness journey so this should definitely be taken seriously.
There are many ways in which you can motivate yourself, these include things such as watching YouTube videos of fitness athletes and motivational videos, listening to your favorite music, looking back in your fitness journal to see how much progress you've made, taking pictures of yourself periodically as another way to check progress and many more! In addition to that, try to prevent yourself from becoming discouraged and surround yourself around positivity. If you are feeling upset because someone in the gym is lifting more than you, go up and ask that person for advice instead of being upset!
Setting New Goals
A lot of fitness enthusiasts will get slightly bored after they have reached their fitness goals – fitness favors the motivated and the high-achievers who are looking for a challenge. Once the goal has been met, there simply is no challenge for one to pursue. With this in mind, it's important to set new goals for yourself even if you have reached your pinnacle in regards to fitness.
Even if you are just maintaining your weight, set a goal for this. A new goal could be something like, 'I will maintain my current weight for one month and keep up to date on any new nutrition studies'. This keeps you involved in your journey and gives you something to work towards, but is still relatively low impact and doesn't require too much work on your part.
There are an abundance of ways in which you can maintain your healthy lifestyle. We have discussed the three major points above and gave some good advice on how you can implement these strategies into your daily life. If you are ever struggling with your journey just make sure to refer back to the three points listed above and they will aid you through the tough times; it's very easy to forget about keeping yourself motivated or setting new goals as this is something which many people only do in the beginning of their journey.
