how to find motivation to work out - tiphaine marie (swiss fashion blog)

As cheesy as it sounds, one of my resolutions for 2017 is to work out more. I started going to the gym again in September and I've almost managed to go twice a week since then, which is something I'm super proud of! Working out again makes me feel great - I also started yoga again and it helps me so much with stress!!

Today I wanted to share with you a few tips for finding the motivation to work out on the long term:

Don't set the bar too high at first. Don't suddenly decide to go to the gym three times a week. Start by going once a week for a month, then go more often once you're used to it!
Make a great playlist. Good music is necessary for me when I go to the gym. My personal favorites for work out songs are Avicii, Green Day, and The Offspring.
Invest in work out wear. I cannot stress this enough! Feeling great in your work out clothes is a key element to being motivated in my opinion. As you can see I teamed up with ODLO for this post and they have some amazing work out wear at the moment! If you feel great while working out, you'll push yourself even further.
Find a work out buddy. Once a week I go to the gym with my mom and my cousin, and I find it way easier to find motivation when I'm not going alone! It brings a social dimension to working out, and makes it more fun.
Eat healthy. I know some people feel like they can eat anything they want because they compensate with working out, but I personally find that eating healthy before or after going to the gym motivates me more!

I hope you guys will find these useful, thanks for stopping by today and happy 2017! x
