Mix It Up

Many people lose interest in workout or fitness programs after a short time. The main reason is boredom, lack of desired results, or stagnation. The keys are to keep your fitness regime fresh, new and challenge yourself for added results.
The definition of insanity to some is "doing the same thing but expecting different results". The human body is no different. It is programmed to adapt to the demands we put on it. If you never change the demands your routine may become stagnant and boring and your body adapts to your routines and stops changing.

The simple fix is variation. If you really want to see results keep your workouts fresh and new, add different exercises, add variations of different exercises and challenge your body to adapt to more intense or different training techniques. If you normally run three times a week throw in tennis, swimming or cycling. Mix it up!
If you run the same distance with the same intensity how quickly do you think your body will adapt? Run a different route, do wind sprints, go further or faster it all makes a significant difference between getting bored and working towards the ultimate you!

If you go to the gym faithfully three times a week and blast the same lifting routine over and over how to you expect your body to change? Mix it up by adding different techniques, drop sets, different lifts etc. In order to achieve stellar and different results one must vary their workout plus it will keep you from getting bored.

Think yoga isn't tough and demanding on the body? Then you haven't tried it! What about a game of one on one with your teenager or co-worker or a trip to the local soccer field! There are literally hundreds of ways to change up ones finess routines. Try something new, don't be afraid of change it could be one of the best things you experience and become your next favorite workout!
