Getting through an intense workout can be the best feeling ever; not only physically but emotionally. Your muscles are becoming more defined, you are shedding weight, and enjoying every minute of it. Believe it or not, there are ways you can reward yourself without wolfing down a slice of chocolate cake or loading up on sweets. It is important that you reward yourself without breaking your nutrition plan. We have outlined the top 3 ways you can do so.
Celebrate With a Nap
What better way to reward your body than giving it a well-deserved rest? Sleep is essential for you health, but especially essential when you are pushing your body to the limit on a daily basis. As you sleep, your muscles rebuild and you wake feeling refreshed, energized, and ready to attack the next training day. The next time you are feeling great after a workout, hop in the bed, and bury yourself under the sheets; your body will thank you.
Document the Moment
Did you finally accomplish lifting a heavier weight? Were you able to beat your mile time? Take pride in your accomplishment by documenting the moment. There are many ways you can do so as technology allows you to share instantly on multiple platforms. Start a vlog, blog, or simply send out a post that makes the masses aware of your achievement! If you would rather keep things private, start a diary or journal. In your diary, you can log all of your improvements, accomplished milestones, and whatever else you would like to document during your fitness journey. Reflecting on past achievements will provide you with the motivation needed to keep striving for more.
Revamp Your Wardrobe
It’s time to go shopping! Your workout clothes may be getting a little too loose as you continue to shed weight or you just may be in the market for some updated threads. Either way, shopping can be a enjoyable way to reward yourself after a great workout. Adding new gym clothes to your wardrobe can be enough inspiration to get you out of bed the next morning to go sport your new threads during another intense workout.
