Get workout clothes

Putting on awesome workout clothes can motivate a person to hit the road and get to a gym.

Try group fitness

Group fitness classes are a great way of increasing motivation. The positive energy of the group can help you stay on track.

Set a goal

If you intend on losing a few pounds, set a goal and achieve it by writing it down on paper and sticking it on your mirror for a daily dose of motivation.

Make a playlist

Create a playlist consisting of your favorite dance tracks that are sure to get you moving. Listening to these can help prolong your workout session.

Compete with someone

Competition is a greater motivator. You can either compete with a friend or a stranger at the gym.

Track success

Track your success by writing it down and give yourself rewards every time you achieve a goal.

Your new strength

The fact that you are getting stronger and able to do things you could not do weeks ago, can be a strong motivator.

Counting calories

Keep a track of the calories you burn during each workout session, which will motivate you to burn more calories by working out more often.

Stress relief

Daily exercise helps relieve stress which can be enough of a motivator.

Take pictures

Make a habit of taking the ‘before’ and ‘after’ pictures to see how far you have come.

Motivational quotes

Fill up your phone gallery or your fridge door with print-outs of motivational quotes for a daily dose of inspiration.

Measure it up

Measure your weight-loss by getting on the scale and measure your waist as well with a measuring tape every once in a while.

Hire a coach

Working with a fitness coach is worth the money as they are a source of constant motivation and can help you achieve your goals in a short span of time.

Feeling attractive

Looking good and feeling confident is always a great source of motivation.

Fitting into old clothes

The fact that you cannot fit into your old pair of jeans from your teenage years can be depressing for some. Work out to be able to fit into great clothes.

Adrenaline rush 

Ride the rush to extend your workout session.

Read magazines

Checking out toned models with great bodies, in fashion magazines can motivate you to work for that body.

Success stories

Read other people’s success stories in order to get inspired and motivated.

Soccer players in general are fit and agile, and it’s very rare to see one with a very high body fat percentage, even at the amateur levels. Being one of the most intensive sports there are, from a cardiovascular standpoint, it’s extremely hard to gain fat while playing soccer on a regular basis. Other health benefits include stronger muscles and improved bone density, as well as a decreased risk of developing certain diseases like diabetes.

The human race is made up of social beings, and it is especially true that at a young age we are naturally very engaging. Being part of a team offers people a kind of experience that provides them with many advantages in life’s later stages, when one has to find professional success. Working together in a team environment is one of the most common indicators of eventual success, whether we are talking about sport or something else that’s completely different.

Self-Image

Because of the concept of being a part of a team, even those individuals who are athletically less gifted can enjoy playing soccer. Having to face less pressure from a sporting environment can lead people to an improved self-image, one of the most important aspects of a child’s mental makeup.
Harold Bob Nartey has first-hand experiences about the social power of soccer, and hopes that the game can become even more popular in North America, taking the sport to new heights during international competitions.

Harold Bob Nartey - On the Importance of Building New Health Habits Gradually

Harold Bob Nartey helps residents of Westchester, Illinois, to get in shape and eat healthy.

When it comes to health and dieting, most people decide to do it and start limiting their food intake, change the foods they eat instantly, and keep going until they break down and can’t do it anymore. Then they proclaim that dieting doesn’t work, that eating healthy is impossible, that they can’t do it, and they go back to their old routines.

                                      Harold Bob Nartey

It is important to understand that building new habits and routines takes time and a lot of work. We frequently underestimate the amount of energy we are spending on something because we assume that the amount of energy is limitless. In reality, when you face new demands, be it new duties at work or a decision to change your diet, you start spending more energy than before and deplete your energy reserves more quickly. 

The only way to increase your capacity in any dimension of life is to train; start small and then increase training over time. This applies to everything in life.

It applies to physical exercise. You won’t be able to run a marathon if you currently can’t run more than a few hundred feet. It also applies to your diet. If you are used to eating McDonalds three times a day, and you suddenly replace it all with kale and vegan shakes, you’ll probably go crazy in a day or two. 
Harold Bob Nartey can help you create a meal plan that will be reasonable and efficient for you.
