What studies say the number one best way to start an exercise habit is to give yourself a reward that you genuinely enjoy.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I exercise hard and the reason I do is so that I can earn the things I like to consume.
Every habit is made of three parts... a cue, a routine and a habit. Most people focus on the routine and behavior, but these cues and rewards are really the way you make something into a habit.
Exercise is like an addiction. Once you're in it, you feel like your body needs it.
I've spent most of my life doing some sort of exercise, but I've learned to never push myself into doing it. I know that when I am up for it I will, and when I'm not in the mood to, I don't make myself feel badly over it.
I am a particular fan of integrative exercise - that is, exercise that occurs in the course of doing some productive activity such as gardening, bicycling to work, doing home improvement projects and so on.
I try to do something active everyday. Liking what you're doing makes working out enjoyable.
I'm addicted to exercising and I have to do something every day.
People should try and look for something that constantly keeps them motivated, and they start enjoying what they are doing.
I am not a gym person, so I do walk a lot. I find gym is incredibly boring. Other thing I do is to devour books because I feel we need to feed our mind as well.
Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.
