What you need to do to keep exercising

5 quite important tips

Read who the undersigned is? Right, Adeline, I just wanted to mention that. That I would ever put this in black and white (or know the almost higher art), but I'm going to do it now anyway. I hang around four to five times a week in a gym It does something to you. The aroma of the sports floor becomes familiar (getting used to it is something very different), I get the customs under control (always buy your own boxing gloves) and I casually say ‘see you tomorrow’ as I quickly head back to the editorial office (I think that's cool). But my success comes from certain things. These are my five quite important tips.

First: the workout buddy

My buddy is well known to you: May-Britt Mobach. Believe me, you won't even think about skipping a class. And when everyone chooses to run the small round with their tongue on their knee, May drags me around the big block. That's 700 real meters after a thousand burpees (and burpees don't go well with me), so that's no small feat. I heard May suddenly say last week that now that I'm going, she's going much more often too. Ha, I have a sporting influence, people, who would have thought that.

Second: a gym around the corner

It helps. Just go before work, during lunch, or right at the end of the day. If you have to go home first, banks will tempt you. You don't have that problem now. By the way, also look for a nice gym with a suitable sports teacher, someone you still like at the beginning of the class (liking them at the end is not required). We have that. If you want, go exercise at The Gym Republic, just promise not to secretly book all our classes.

Third: a nice outfit

I saw myself yesterday in my loose shorts (PANTS) going at the punching bag, and I suddenly noticed that it does nothing for me. It makes my legs possibly even bigger. Buy a tight sports pants, ladies (I'm less of a fan with men), preferably from a nice brand. Looking good will increase your motivation.

Fourth: a gym with Instagram

Because then you see after the workout how much work there actually still is to do. Like yesterday, in my too loose sports pants. It's always just as confronting, I never look good on Stories, but it helps. One day I will do that plank like a true Gisele (May dreamed that I would become a Gisele Bündchen), one day. And if they could just capture that, please.

Fifth: a measuring tape

Even if you don't lose a gram, the centimeters disappear. Half an inch off the waist and two (YES TWO) off each thigh. By the way, don't measure your breasts too often, but otherwise just take everything with the tape. Measuring is knowing and that keeps you going.

So, that was it. I'll see you in the gym, amigos.
