Getting back to a workout routine is a very tough thing.
Whether it is a break of a week , or a month or even an year !Most of us are not professional athletes / body builders who have the time / necessity to go to gym regularly . We have personal / professional reasons which prevent us from sticking to a schedule . It's ok . Taking a break is not a crime . The important thing is to get back to the gym / routine.
I have had my share of experiences with getting back to my workout routine . Here are some pointers which helped me to stick through ! Hope you find it useful.
1. There is no "good day" to get started . Start today . Start now .
I have seen so many people wait for the right day ( Monday or 1st of next month) but it never works for good. So pls don't wait for any day or time . That's just another excuse to postpone your workout .
2. Don't become dependant on anyone. Be it your friend or relative . It may sound like a good plan initially , but the problem starts when one of you take a break . The other person has become dependant and it becomes tough to continue. You can encourage each other by sharing your workout details with each other .
3. Stop giving excuses. Don't think you are too busy or too tired to workout . Just look around and see so many people who will inspire you . Get inspired and start the routine
4. Set a reasonable goal . Not in your scale . See the improvement in your lifting capabilities . Keep track of how much you lift and improve steadily . The result will come in just a matter of time.
Stay fit forever !
