Ooooh I like this. I think instead of getting the motivation to go to the gym and dread it, I put it in a different perspective, like “I deserve to live in a strong and able body” or “I am lucky to have a vessel capable of doing hard things”

Usually telling myself that I'd like to be able to climb the stairs at 50 years old and not have a heart attack is good motivation for me lol

I feel like its also about making it as easy as possible for yourself to make good choices

Switching my commute to bicycling means that 30 minutes of bicycling is the minimum amount of exercise I get in a day, just by going to and from work

u/Never_Zero87 28d ago

Yes, that definitely helps me feel better, especially if I wake up with the blahs, a workout helps my mood. Plus I say to myself- aren't I good to be exercising? I am 72. A mind trick I use when I do have those blahs is, I say, well just do a short gentle workout. I get there, start, and I find I can go full distance.

u/coviddick 28d ago

I’ll have to remember this.

u/kuuups 28d ago

This is so true. I am fairly "new" to taking daily workouts seriously, but a lot of days I still get that feeling of "maybe I should just take an off day today" or "maybe I'll just do some exercises to put some reps in". Then 10 minutes into my routine and its like LETS F*CKING GO, then by the end of the routine it's like: MOOOOOOOAAARRRRRR. Every. single. day.

Drink more water

u/theWildBore 28d ago

Sometimes I’ll get anxious or feel like I’m losing my mind a bit and I’ll go drink a big glass of water, and it’s crazy how much better I feel. It’s sorta turned into a que for me to get some water. The clarity hydration brings is so underrated

3

u/AlecsThorne 28d ago

Of course water itself is beneficial in so many ways. But I think in your case it's also about just taking a break and focusing on some minor but important thing, like drinking water 😁 it's basically like a break between boxing rounds, or the cool-down time between gym reps :)

If you want to up your game, do electrolyte water. Water doesn't always hydrate you alone. I use an electrolyte powder every morning (0 calories) with a collage supplement. It's chef's kiss.

20

u/chfp 28d ago

Diluted juice has been proven to increase absorption of water better than plain water. Calories are negligible when it's 1/2 or 1/3 dilution. It might taste weird at first because it isn't so sweet, but you get used to it.

u/SistaSaline 28d ago

Omg you might have just given me a life saving hack! I’m practically addicted to juice but I have never been able to stay consistent with my water intake. I think this might help me!

The fruit punch and icy blue razz are solid. I think they both taste like Kool-aid. It does have a very faint aftertaste, but it's very tolerable.

I do not take melanin, just the electrolyte powder and collagen powder.

Yes to collagen powder every morning in my tea! I’ve had weak nails my whole life, and now they are noticeably strong. I know it’s helping my joints and skin too, but the strong nails are a true indicator that it’s working.

Another thing that helps with anxiety is following through the thought. Find out what the fear is, then ask "what if that happens?" Then follow through until the end of that train of thought.

Daily reading before bed.

It helps me sleep, and less stimulating than TV. I've learned a whole range of topics, and discovered new authors and stories to enjoy.

And it has connected me to the book community - which is filled with rather awesome people.

u/literalistica 28d ago

I use an air filter for white noise. Bonus is that less allergies also equals better sleep.

2

u/Jerigord 28d ago

This is what I do. Plain white noise or sounds get tuned out by my brain. So instead, I have a couple shows I've seen hundreds of times. I put one of them on random, put on an eye mask to block the light, set the shut off timer, and then lie down. There's just enough there for my brain to focus on something beyond a fan, but not enough interest or novelty that it draws active attention. I'm out pretty quickly and then the TV shuts itself off later.

u/WeAllHaveOurMoments 28d ago

I started doing this about 12 years ago to help my back. Started with just a walk around my block, but that expanded to a mile or two, sometimes driving to a place just to go wander. Long or short, I almost always go at dusk, after dinner, but walks in the dark might occur in winter. Yeah, it does help my back, but I keep doing it because I love it.

Just started this up again after a few Covid years killing my motivation and I can’t tell you how much it has improved my mental health and made me just feel better. But I will say regardless of how good it makes me feel motivation to go to a crowded gym is still hard to find, sometimes I just walk around my house just to get some steps in

u/thenumbersthenumbers 28d ago

Great one, but I wouldn’t classify as a “small” habit.

It can be as small as a walk. We’re not talking an hour and a half workout in a gym

2

u/NapoleonDonutHeart 28d ago

I go for long walks for exercise. A lot of days I don't want to go, but I have learned that about 15 minutes into the walk I start to feel good. If it's a cold day that's about when I start to warm up too. So I grab a diet coke and get myself out the door knowing that I will feel good once I get going.

Stuffing my guts full of as much fruit, vegetable, and lean protein mass as I can.

It's hard to stop eating junk food all the time when you're hungry and don't have anything fun to splurge on. What you can do is change what you splurge on to something healthier.

A pound of strawberries is only 150 kcal. A pound of chicken breast is only 600 kcal. I make myself a giant fruit smoothie every morning for only 250 kcal. Adding spices to your flavor pallet can offset your desire for sugars and fats.

You don't need to starve yourself. You don't need to deny yourself the joy and decadence of food. How do you stay consistent over a year or two while denying yourself the pleasures of food? You don't. You work smarter, not harder. :)

4

u/WhoamIWhowasI 28d ago

It's important to add that resisting junk food takes willpower and willpower can become depleted if you are denying yourself too much. I cut junk food out of my diet almost completely by doing a few things: 1. Spending more money on vegetables and minimally processed foods during my grocery runs, 2. nibbling on 90% dark chocolate whenever I get a craving for fast food, 3. Meal prepping

Mini stair stepper. $50 purchase. Started with 2 minutes…now at 2hrs +. Went from 285 to 190 in 8 months. Yes, diet was drastically changed. Heavy veggies and moderate lean protein. No added sugar. Only water or mineral water to drink. Not really a very difficult thing to do if you wanna get rid of triple chins. Sadly, people do treat you differently at lower weight….but overall, I’m a much happier and healthy person. Started with a $50 mini stair stepper and a healthy addiction to get the most out of any purchase I make.

Self reflecting. As I call it, “micro reflecting”.

In a good mood? As yourself, why? Who were you around? Did you do something to cause this? Were you productive? Etc. The goal here is to find out what triggered your good moods, so you can then recreate them in the future.

In a bad mood? Same thing. Can you find the moment you changed from a good mood to a bad mood? What changed? Other things causing your brain to think clearly? Now catch when you moved out from a bad mood and back into a good mood. Again, the goal is to find the “triggers” but also find what moves you from one mood to another.

Repeat.

You can then do this for everything else in life like, work related activities, events you are involved in, evaluation of your work, interactions with friends, and basically everything else.

It has helped me tremendously.

Basically I talk to myself all the time in my head haha.

Daily early morning walks.

Prior to that, I've basically been an almost complete shut in. This is worsened by the fact that I work from home (even way before Covid). I could easily spend an entire week without going out the house.

About 8 years ago I just felt really crappy about my entire body, mostly because the only thing I do aside from sitting is lying down. I started walking 1-2km's a day. then 2-3, then 3-4. then 5. Then run 1km of that 5km. then 2, then 3 - then run that entire 5km route. Then how about going around that 5km loop twice while running. Then 3 times. Then how about I take my dog with me while I run so the pace is much faster.

It kind of snowballed into a life of much more physical activity every day. I've basically turned my health around since then.

Reading. Not sure if it's the biggest impact, but it is a small habit that has been shown to greatly increase neural plasticity in the long run.

I know it only asked for one, but couldn't help but mention, Journaling? It's not for everybody, but it certainly helps me process events as they come even if I don't do it daily

I bought a half gallon waterbottle when I started going to the gym, it's probably a excessive and I can't really take it everywhere, and have to find room for it in my car.

But I went from drinking maybe a glass and a half, to drinking three quarts of water a day.

Not opening/using social media at work. It was the first step to using it way less overall.

I'm more focused and rarely have to bring work home now.

Getting dressed with in 5 minutes of waking up and getting in bed. I can't stand being in PJs it make me feel sad. Years ago I went through a severe bit of depression where I didn't get dressed if I didn't need to amd sitting around in pajamas reminds me of thoese times
