A few tips to keep a regular workout routine in the long run

You may have noticed it already: during the months of January and February, fitness clubs are more packed than the rest of the day. However, if the motivation was high at first, it rapidly decreases (or even disappears). A lot of people are in fact giving up after a couple of weeks at the gym. If this year, you not only want to set realistic goals but also keep your motivation high, follow our few tips:

  • Set realistic goals: it is important to be aware that you will probably not lose weight during the first couple of months. Indeed, it is a very common thing. However, you should not give up! It is important that you keep on challenging yourself: you can decide to go for a 30-minutes run without a break or hold a plank for as long you can. You can latter establish new ones once you have reached them.
  • See the long-term benefits: even if you do not lose weight, you will be more toned and have a better breathing capacity. It also helps reduce stress and can improve your tonicity.
  • Do not underestimate you: each time you go to the gym, some guy lifts heavier weights, runs longer or gains muscle quicker than you do. Each metabolism is different, and you probably do not know how long it took them to reach that point. Be satisfied with your own progress.
  • Focus on the benefits of what you are doing: maybe you have not lost any pound, but have not you a better balance, breathing capacity or endurance? These are all great things for your health.
  • Try to involve other people: if one of your friends is motivated, subscribe together. Thus, the days you are not really into going to the gym, knowing that your mate is waiting for you will help you get there.

If you do not want to feel the pressure, no need to wait for the beginning of next year to make a resolution, you can give the best from now on.

  • personal coaches...

Located all across Brussels, these gyms will offer you the best advantages with their cutting-edge equipment and attentive expert supervision.

We recommend researching any gym thoroughly. Take the time to visit before signing up, in order to ascertain what the general atmosphere is like. Does staff seem efficient, friendly and knowledgeable ? Does the environment appear safe and hygienic? You can also observe how busy the center is around the time that you will work out on a regular basis. Is machinery readily available? Are there space and showers left in the locker-room? This would also be a good opportunity to find out more about amenities and extra services, as well as to look into the club’s cancellation policy.

Sport aficionados are often divided in two groups: those who would rather workout on their own and those who need a group effect to feel motivated. But all fitness clubs do not offer these possibilities. This is an important point to determine before the subscription. Isn't a centre that proposes the two too expensive? Do you really need the coaching sessions ? So don't hesite to compare the prices of all the formulas in various fitness centres and, if possible, try the collective sessions you want to participe in.

If you are a complete beginner, do not hesitate to ask your questions to one of the personal trainer. The make demonstrations of the use of the equipments, but are also available for a health check-up. They will elaborate your programme according to your goals and your level: train for a competition, lose weight or even gain muscle. They also give you advices so you don't injure yourself because you didn't warm-up or stretch enough, for example.

With a coach, you can ensure you are doing the right movement so you won't suffer from back pain or joints aches, especially the most fragile ones such as ankles and knee. Thanks to their explanations, you will learn more about your own body, its muscles and so on and, thus, improve specific skills. A trainer will also provide you a motivational support in order to increase your engagement in your sportive practise. Cliquez également sur le lien suivant pour trouver un club de gym à Uccle.
