Consistency reset

A key to fitness success is consistency.

Consistency requires doing the same thing over and over again. That is usually easier said than done, but here are some tips to help get you out of a rut and back into your routine at the gym.

Shake it up - Train at a different time of day. Normally an evening person? Squeeze in a noon during your lunch break just to stop the monotony of hitting the gym at the same time every day.

Seek Context - Not sure why you're doing what you're doing? Ask your coach and they should give you some good insights to the inner working of your training program. A little bit of direction goes a long way.

Train with a Friend - Schedule a workout with a buddy and have them jump in on your workout or vise versa.

Time off - Maybe you need a week to hit the reset button. This one is a slippery slope, for sure. However, a little time away from the gym can be just what you need to get back on track. Especially if you've been working towards a goal and it’s time to shift gears.

No matter if you want to get stronger, healthier, or more resilient, consistency is part of the plan, stick with it!
