Tips for improving your fitness

Without focus it is easy for training to get stale causing loss of motivation and a plateau or decline in performance.  Below are some tips to help keep exercise fresh and keep the focus:-

  • Use cross training.  Ideas for cross training include cycling, swimming, running, weights, boot camps.  Consider where your current focus is and what other training would complement what you are doing.
  • Test yourself.  To know if what you are doing is working set yourself a test.  For example, how fast can you run 5 km (use the same course for future tests), how quickly can you cycle up a hill or how many repetitions can you push with a certain weight on the bench press.
  • Change your training.  If you pump low weights, high reps, switch it around to medium weights and reps or add some intervals to your running or cycling.
  • Train with a partner.  Find a training partner that will push and encourage you.
