Get motivated, set realistic goals to keep body moving

First, set goals for your fitness training and be specific. The more specific you can be the better.

Next, get a plan in place. This gives you a daily goal to aim for. A structured plan will increase your motivation and your chances for success. A huge demotivator is overtraining.

Use role models to inspire you. Find out who or what motivates you and then surround yourself with it.

Record your training progress. Keeping a logbook of your workouts, training sessions, races times, running times or whatever, will keep you focused on the tasks at hand and allow you to accurately check your progress.

Variety is the spice of life so cross-train. You are much more likely to stay consistent with your workouts if you add some variety to your program.
