1. Make a diagnosis of yourself: it consists of evaluating our habits, our body and its functioning. If we need to improve our physical fitness and modify certain habits, such as physical inactivity, we will take the first step to not abandon training. 2. Set real goals: Many are what go into long hours in the gym with the goal of losing 3 kilos of body weight in a day. Well, let's not be unrealistic, it's impossible! And in the face of the impossibility of achieving our goals, we become disillusioned and wish to get away from the activity. However, with patience and perseverance in training can be achieved great positive changes, not only on our body, but also on the rest of our habits and mental functioning.

3. Know and be trained: knowing what are the varied and multiple benefits that physical activity provides for health is a great resource to wish to do it and not miss its advantages.

4. No to overtraining: training more than our body resists is a powerful demotivator, since the only thing that will achieve is that the body surrenders before time, feeling fatigue and fatigue that will not want to experience again. Therefore, our exercise routine should be in accordance with our physical form and need. Do not forget to consult with a professional trainer.

5. Record the progress: once we start to find the good taste of the training, it is necessary to see our progress and improvements, therefore, it is always a great encouragement to keep track of our progress. For example: before it ran 2km and now 5km; before I had 30% fat and now 27%.

6. Have fun in the trainings: if you need a touch of humor to not get bored, then you should find it. Choose the activity that gives you the most pleasure and the rhythm that most motivates you to continue doing it. Each activity produces a different effect according to the tastes and preferences of the individual, therefore, you should only try and then select.

7. Apply variety: it is not necessary that you always do the same activity, since the routine tends to tire us and ends up getting bored. The advisable thing is that you choose your favorite activity, but alternate this one with other classes of gymnasiums, sports or different activities. Thus, not only will you work differently and obtain different results, but innovation will keep you motivated.

8. Support devices: the pedometer or other devices that assist your sports practice can produce a very stimulating and motivating psychological effect. That is, if we see the number of steps walked and the calories burned, we will be more than satisfied with what was done and wanting to self-surrender the next day.

9. Socialize in your exercise: there are many of us who like to do physical activity in company and the reality is that exercising with other people is a great resource to combat boredom and also, not lose the chance to reap friendships and solidify them.

10. Visualize your goal achieved: to experience in advance the emotions and feelings of the moment in which we achieve the proposed goal, will be a great motivator to help achieve them. The objectives may vary from one person to another, but all have equal importance to continue training without falling into a sedentary lifestyle and harm our health.

Of course, all of us can have different reasons that encourage us to exercise regularly, but knowing what are the aspects that can maintain this motivation will help to enhance the positive results provided by physical exercise.
