Read on to know easy tips you can follow, to squeeze in your fitness routine into your otherwise packed schedule.

Tips to Quit Sabotaging Your Fitness Goals

Here are a few easy, affordable, and efficient ways to incorporate your fitness regimen within your daily schedule:

• Incorporate More Physical Activity in Your Day: Taking stairs instead of the elevator can be beneficial for you in the long-run. Jillian advises that the non-exercise activity thermogenesis or N.E.A.T is a great way to burn calories. You can just stand while taking over phone or while waiting at your doctor’s clinic. Have a walking meeting at your office instead of that conventional sitting meeting. While Jillian reminds that it is not an elixir for staying healthy, but yes in long run this is going to help a lot.
• Create a Mini Gym for Yourself: You need not buy expensive gym equipment for your home or clear out a whole room for this purpose. All you need is a small 8 by 8 square room, a yoga mat, few dumbbells ranging from 3 pounds to 8 pounds and a resistance tube. Jillian advises that you can do push-ups, crunches, lunges, squats, downward-facing dogs, planks, jumping jacks and mountain climbers. All these exercises are enough to tone all your body parts, without actually hitting the gym.
• Download a Suitable App: Fitness apps are a great way to begin with. Apps are available with personalized requirements. There are personal training apps, cycling apps, running apps and calorie counting apps. You can choose and download the best suitable apps for yourself. You might also love the idea that a few apps also provide you different workouts for different days and also customized meal plans. Jillian encourages to do this right away.
• Subscribe a Fitness Channel: There are a number of fitness channels that provide you a plethora of exercises, meal plans and other health tips on just a single click. Subscribing a health channel can help you adhere to your fitness goals by having access to hundreds of trainers and exercises. This also does not require any hefty personal trainer fees. You can just follow these online and work out in the comfort of your own home.

Jillian believes that these simple, effective tips can help you in sticking to your fitness goals. You are much close to your ideal body weight and body than your thought you probably are.
