BellaOnline Forums Health and Fitness Exercise trouble with exercise motivation?

Monica,

Love your article! You always give such great workout tips -- all of them are great. Keep the good stuff coming, I need it

Thanks for the feedback April. I really appreciate it!! You are awesome. Just do the best you can each day and all the little actions will eventually snowball into big results.

I use the "foot in the door" method. For me I call it -- "just run ONE mile on the treadmill". As you said, most times I go more than that. But not always.... sometimes it feels like a chore all the way through it and I stop after a mile. But the difference between just that one mile versus absolutely nothing is HUGE!

I also agree with the poster above who said that picking a race, especially one that a friend is doing, can help give you a boost. I did that in Nov. and Feb -- guess now that it is April, maybe I should try to pick another one.
