Fitness: this word looks very different depending who you ask. For some, fitness is a way of life. For others it's a day to day battle that people face each morning when the alarm clock blares at 5am. For me, fitness is a little bit of both. Over the last several months, I've been battling a running injury so my fitness has been up and down and getting back into the groove has seemed overwhelming at times. We've all been there before, right?
So I've been thinking about my fitness experience and what fitness means to me. Here it is:
Fitness should be fun! The best way to have fun when working out is with friends or wearing a fun, bright outfit. Check out some of the women's activewear brands like Nike and Asics that Kohl's offers. They've got some really cute fun clothes!
Intervals are important when it comes to fitness. Think short bursts of exercise that burn lots of calories and don't take a lot of time. A sport watch from Kohl's is a great way to keep track of these intervals during your training. It gets you a lot of bang for your buck!
Whatever fitness activity you choose, it should be tough. It's easy to get complacent with a routine, but that doesn't do a body good. Be sure to keep things a little tough. No pain, no gain.
There are so many new things when it comes to fitness from gear and activities that it's so easy to try something new. Step outside your comfort. You'll be glad you did!
Keep your fitness exciting! You want to enjoy your workout each day. Otherwise working out can become a chore like everything in life. You want to look forward to your next workout.
Fitness should make you feel and look sexy. Yes I know you may not look sexy over night, but inside you'll feel sexy. You'll feel strong and empowered. It's an amazing feeling...enjoy it!
When in doubt, sweat it out! Get your sweat on as often as you can. Regardless of your activity, get that heart pumping and sweat.
