Document Summary

Other benefits mentioned by the researchers that could also be accrued with using these techniques go beyond physical fitness. According to the researchers, benefits of fitness goals improve our psychological fitness by building skills that are essential in the workplace. I have two motivation techniques that have helped me establish a fitness habit. These two techniques include giving myself a real goal and scheduling workout sessions with friends. I find that giving myself a real goal motivates me better than an unrealistic one. Currently, my goal is to have a stronger core and upper body strength by the end of winter. This gives me plenty of time to achieve my goal. Also, scheduling workout sessions with friends creates an obligation of committing to working out and not letting them down by not showing up. I try and exercise three to four times a week, however, with school and work that can be a challenge.
