I think there are 3 magic numbers that help me move more,they are 10,15,and 20. !0 is for the just 10 minutes rule ie if I'm lacking in motivation I tell myself I will do something for just 10 minutes and stop at that if I don't want to continue.I usually carry on after that time because once I've started something it is much easier to keep going.I'm also usually enjoying myself once I've overcome my initial inertia.For our new members I'd recommend 10 minute Boogie sessions,play some music and dance like a maniac for 10 minutes.It's guaranteed to raise your spirits and give you a real boost.
15 is for the number of exercise repetitions that are needed to have and effect on the muscle groups we are targeting.The instructor at the gym I went to told me this ,if it's incorrect I apologise ,but it's what I work to.I have been trying to do at least 2 sets of 15 Squats per day to target my flabby thighs plus the same number of arm exercises and sit ups to tone up my other problem areas.Do ing these takes very little time and can be slotted in whenever you have a tiny bit of free time.
20 is a very special number for me It's the age difference between my OH and me.He is 20 years younger so that helps motivate me to make an effort to keep fit and active.If you haven't got a toy boy have fun looking for one or work on the model you've got so he looks and acts 20 years younger when you've finished with him!! If you are very young adjust the figures accordingly lol Enjoy your day everyone. Decx
