Welcome to our day-to-day, more casual blog about our daily fitness life here at Golden Gloves blog. It is here where we discuss fitness, boxing, health and wellness. Today we are discussing how to get into the mood of working out and getting the best results out of your workouts. For most people, the hardest part of training is the beginning and getting into it. Especially if they have skipped a lot of days. There are many ways you can 'get back into it'. Let's go over them.
Firstly, don't look at the clock! The only time there is red tape is if it is past 9 PM. Otherwise, watching the clock closely will make you dread getting into the gym and while working out. The time moves slowly because you're watching it and not realizing the fact that the time will fly by once you start working hard in the gym. Personally, I don't even have a sports watch on when I work out, I put it aside on a table and use it as a timer instead, looking over from time to time but never consistently.
Secondly, BE COMFORTABLE. Having a hard time breaking a sweat? Maybe it is because your sports shoes are not comfortable enough or maybe because you have too much on your mind? Get rid of those barriers. Before you begin your workout, just focus on it mentally. Physically, dress comfortably in your gym clothes and make sure there is nothing interrupting your workout. Interruptions are the leading cause of incomplete workouts.
Thirdly, feel out your body, where it is stiff carefully stretch that area. Where there is not enough muscle, develop that portion. Taking notes is helpful, but only for some. I personally just take mental notes. I say okay: today it is my legs because my calves are not developed enough. Pay close attention to the physics of your body. Every persons' body is different and has different requirements: you know, deep down, what works best for you. Also, make sure you break that sweat, it contains unwanted substances that need to flushed out and that sweat sends a signal to your body that is is being worked.
Lastly, outside of the ring or the gym, have keen interest in the sport. Watch videos, talk to people about it, attend matches, and simply be all about it. At Golden Gloves fitness we eat, breathe and sleep boxing & fitness, it is all what we are about. It is easier for it to be in the mood because we are set and finely tuned to be training everyday or every other day. We make sure we are comfortable but at the same time ready for new techniques. We also keep a fun atmosphere and love to discuss boxing, fitness and wellness results.
