- Exercise motivation.
It’s fair to say that most people understand the value of daily exercise and how it positively affects our physical health and mental health. Despite the countless benefits, for so many of us, it’s hard to stay consistent in a fitness routine. Studies suggest that over 50% of people who make new years resolutions to exercise more, end up giving up on them in the first 6 weeks. How can we use psychology to help us stay motivated in the gym? Here are four tips to consider.

As a fellow psych major I appreciate these! Super eloquent and nicely done! ☺️
Completely unrelated to this video, but I absolutely admire the fact that you don't cut out parts of your videos when you mispronounce a word or stutter in the middle of a sentence. As an introvert who's extremely self conscious and feel embarrassed & humiliated when they stutter or mispronounce something, this means a lot to me. Thank you for that, Alexa.
That's some great advise!
Great Channel! I Personally feel that in order to stay motivated to workout we should acknowledge what is does to our mental health rather than the physical. I use workouts as a method of stress relief, so it has been easy for me to stay consistent. If we take our time and not go too hard on ourselves, especially our diets, i feel like this can make more people stay in the gym.
very good insight. i truly believe that exercise is essential for ones well being physically and especially mentally. well done!
Intrinsic Motivation. Got it.
Thank you so much for the tips my friend.
Those January/February months are brutal at the gym lol it seems like New Year's resolutions rarely seem to pan out.
Great info! Glad to find this channel. 👽🌹🇨🇦
Nice 👍 🙏💯🔱☀️🌎
Love love this! Intrinsic motivation is ultimately what has kept me exercising long term. Knowing that consistent exercise increases my baseline level of happiness is all I need to keep going. 💗😎
Definitely helpful insights! Thanks for your insights!
Just when I was thinking of how I skipped a few days at the gym this week 😭
You gotta see a gal with humour and reliable news
I don't enjoy exercise, and it doesn't make me feel good or better.
