How to hold onto your motivation when training gets tough


Maintaining motivation during challenging gym sessions is a common struggle, especially with additional hurdles of dark nights and cold weather, but there are several strategies to help you stay on track and push through the tough times.

  • Set Realistic Goals: Ensure your fitness goals are achievable and measurable. Break them down into smaller milestones, celebrating each accomplishment. This will make your progress more tangible and boost your motivation.
  • Vary Your Routine: Monotony can lead to boredom and reduced motivation. Keep your workouts interesting by incorporating different exercises, changing your routine regularly, or trying new classes. This not only stimulates your body but also keeps your mind engaged.
  • Find a Workout Buddy: Having a reliable workout partner can make a significant difference. A friend can provide support, encouragement, and a sense of accountability. Knowing that someone is relying on you can be a powerful motivator to show up at the gym.
  • Mix Up Your Playlist: Music has a profound impact on motivation. Create an energetic playlist with your favourite tunes to pump you up during workouts. Update it regularly to prevent it from becoming stale.
  • Reward Yourself: Treat yourself when you reach specific milestones. Whether it's a cheat meal, a relaxing massage, or a new workout outfit, rewards can serve as positive reinforcements for your efforts.
  • Visualise Success: Envision yourself achieving your fitness goals. Create a mental image of the benefits you'll gain from consistent training, such as improved health, increased energy, or a more confident self-image.
  • Track Your Progress: Keep a fitness journal or use apps to track your progress. Seeing improvements in strength, endurance, or body composition can be incredibly motivating and help you stay committed.
  • Allow Rest and Recovery: Overtraining can lead to burnout and decreased motivation. Schedule rest days into your routine to allow your body to recover. A well-rested body is more likely to perform well and keep you motivated in the long run.

Remember, motivation can fluctuate, but building a routine and implementing these strategies can help you push through the tough times and continue making progress in your fitness journey.
