Top 3 tips to begin training
1. Test out something new, you might discover a new favorite! Friskis offers a large selection of various forms of exercise.
2. Bring a friend. It can be easier (and more fun) to get your workouts done if there are several of you who have decided to go.
3. Start slowly. It's easy to push yourself too hard and quickly lose motivation or get injured. Try to lower the demands.
More motivation and support at the gym
Perhaps you're new to the gym and not sure where to begin. Or maybe you've been training at the gym for some time and would appreciate some extra motivation and guidance. Whatever your situation, Friskis' amazing Training Inspirers are in the gym at many Friskis locations! So don't hesitate to ask one of them if you have any questions about your workouts.
Chill - relax sometimes
It's totally fine, even essential, to just be sometimes. After pushing hard, whether it's during workouts or at school, we need to take it easy to allow our bodies to recover. How do you handle it?
Sleep matters
Many processes occur in the body while we sleep, and it's truly one of the most vital aspects of well-being. For instance, sleep helps you to:
Feel more rested, stronger, and have greater endurance.
Concentrate more easily and learn effectively.
Cope with stress more effectively.
A tip for falling asleep easier is to switch off your computer and phone some time before you plan to go to sleep. For example, try doing a relaxing yoga routine.
