Exercise Tip of the Week: Phone a Friend

Even the fittest and most motivated person can sometimes get bored of the same old work out. When exercise starts to feel like a chore it becomes much harder to meet your goals. We all know that feeling when the novelty has worn off and the couch starts to look inviting. So our best tip to deal with this is simple. Tell a friend. Friends, partners, neighbours and relatives can provide fantastic support and motivation when you are feeling down. We find that a walk with a friend goes twice as fast and gives you the chance to chat and laugh together instead of sitting at home comfort eating and feeling defeated. There is always someone who is free to join you at the gym, for a swim or just a 30 minute brisk walk round the block before Coronation St! All you have to do is tell your friend that you need their help.
