PSYCH OUT YOUR BODY

I want to share this from my friend send me through email. I love this words!!!! My friend is studying toward PHD. That is not to say you can breeze through a workout simply by keeping your head i nthe game. Fitness is still key but having the proper mental tools can give you that extra something to push you to complete your goals. "I am tired. I can't go on!" The answer: Pretennd there are springs on your feet try to use your imagine that you had springs on your feet or helium balloons lifting her forward. Changing you through process changed your whole workout experiece. " I have no time" the answer: Plan on paper You're busy. We know. but you may have more time for fitness than you think. Every night, write your detailed game plan for the following day and make sure you've taken into account any obstacles that may come up. That should inspire you to carve out more time for fitness. "I m just not improving" The answer: Cue the video Watching home movies from last Christmas won't help you reach your fitness goals but tuning int to another kind of video may do just that. "seeing an image of proper form- swim stroke, tennis serve has been shown to help the brain improve on what the body can do" "Workouts are a chore" The answer: Enlist a buddy "To turn your workout into something you look forward to, make it your social time too". When you care with someone, you're more likely to stick your fitness plan so as not to disappoint your partner. I am so proud of my friend with her fantastic work.. hope she will get A on her term paper.. It is ture what my friend researched this people's minds about boost up your brian for exercise!!! Of course she interviewed me SMILE! Hugs Kathy K
