It's mind game, determination promise to yourself fit . Check on mental Peace and space, first that need to fixed then your promise of keeping yourself fit will drive based on your liking gym, yoga, walk.

Realistic goals always help. I don't penalize in case I miss,but try to cover up in the week. Just start instead of any dissection . Action action ....big and small to get back to walking

Setting targets for 30-60-90 days is helpful. Designing a realistic training schedule around your goals is key. A schedule keeps you honest and on track with training. Planning your workouts reduces the stress associated with determining what action to take. Adding variety to the training keeps it engaging and fun. Training with a partner can amp up the intensity & introduce competition. Rewarding yourself at the end of the week of training reinforces the positive behavior and allows you to keep up with the demands of training to a schedule for a long period of time.

Between work commitments, family obligations and social events, it may seem daunting and downright impossible to add anything else to your plate. As a result, people tend to sacrifice the one thing they might enjoy doing the least exercise. Perhaps it started with a busy week, and then one week turned into two and then before you knew it, you hadn’t visited the gym in a series of months. Here are five strategies that will get you back on track. Find your motivation then talk to a professional fitness coach, take your time getting back into a routine, don’t change everything at once, take a holistic approach to your workouts and redefine what exercise means.

I have found that having a workout planned (this includes the exercises, reps, sets and rest) is the easiest way to get your works done in an efficient and timely matter. Planning a working ahead of time takes the guess work out it. If you are distracted trying to plan your next move during your workout, your focus will be off. There is a chance you will lose motivation and quit. While I always have a plan I am open to adapting it as needed. Try to keep a list of substitute exercises at top of mind in case a piece of equipment is occupied, out of order or you aren't feeling 100% that day. If you have trouble planning your workouts you can look for online programs that fit your workout needs and goals or seek guidance from a professional.

A fitness buddy can completely change everything! Sometimes just having someone there to workout with is enough to get you moving. A fitness buddy who shares your goals and interest can motivate you. This is also a great way to learn new skills, perfect your form, and be held you accountable. A fitness buddy can also make the workout fun and the time go by fast.

Stop focusing so much on the outcome and achieving the goal. Focus on enjoying the process and the little wins. When you focus too much on the outcome you can easily become unmotivated, frustrated or disappointed. When you have little wins CELEBRATE them. Treat yourself to a new pair of sneakers, that massage, spa day. Treat yourself to whatever is going to keep you motivated. Rewarding yourself will help you appreciate the progress you are making. Appreciate the little wins can also make achieving a goal seem easier.

Finding a trainer that you mesh with, making workout time non-negotiable, and consistency is key. I would love to hear how the fitness experts here on LinkedIn help their clients get back "on the wagon" when they fall off.

Finding something that you love to do helps with consistency. It does not have to be the gym any sport of physical activity with your kids for example can really motivate you to get on track. Also, setting yourself up for success by scheduling your workouts like meetings you can't miss can be beneficial. Printing out a calendar and writing down your workouts for the next few weeks can help you stay committed.
