Part 4/10:
Foster Accountability: Sharing your goals on platforms like YouTube can create a sense of accountability, motivating you to stay on track.
Be Realistic and Timely: Starting with manageable workouts is essential to build confidence and avoid burnout. Kelsey emphasizes that planning a minimum of three workouts per week is often the sweet spot.
Overcoming Initial Resistance
As Kelsey points out, even the hardest part is simply making it to the gym. On days when motivation wanes, it can be helpful to reduce barriers. A practical approach could include:
- Start Small: If you're new to weightlifting or returning after a break, consider beginning with just five minutes of movement. Over time, this builds momentum without overwhelming expectations.
