Motivation to exercise

I need more exercise! Normally exercising every day walking or cycling to meetings, I need motivation and discipline to do the equivalent now there are no meetings! All I seem to do is gardening and more gardening.

Hi and welcome, Daveswife :)

Maybe you could have two regular walks a day, now that restrictions have been loosened? Or one walk and one cycle? Have a timetable for 7am - 8am and 7pm - 8pm and stick to it.

If you join our Fit is Fun Club, you can announce your intentions to everyone else and they'll help to keep you accountable and encouraged.

If you're also here to lose weight, all of the information you need about the forum can be found in Pinned Posts healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh... and I hope you'll be joining all the Events, Challenges and Clubs that we run, especially a weigh-in and the daily diary.

We've found active participation to be key to successful weight loss and, of course, it's a good way to get to know people, find inspiration and share support and encouragement.

Wishing you all the best :)
