Stay motivated with Noom's top 12 #PsychTricks

Lay it all on the line: Heading out for an early run in the morning? Heading to a workout class after work? Lay your
gear out or pack your bag the night before -- clothing, towel, water bottle, sneakers -- anything you need for success.
This way, you'll be one step closer to getting out the door!

BUDDY UP: … Because working out is always more fun with friends. Studies show that when you partner up, you're
more likely to workout longer and with greater intensity, or even workout at all!

Think about the "AFTER": … And no, we're not talking the after photo! Have you ever dragged your butt to the gym
despite not wanting to workout? We've been there, too! But did you regret going afterwards? Chances are, you were
happy you did. So next time you're feeling like skipping your workout simply because you don't feel like it, think about
how you'll feel after -- accomplished with a side of endorphins.

Move with JOY: A lot of people have it ingrained that exercise has to feel miserable. If you're doing something you
don't enjoy, this could very well be true, but we can promise you right now that you won't stick to a plan that you don't
enjoy. We've provided you with a plan that includes tons of options. Choose workouts that make you feel good --
whether that's a salsa class, a yoga flow, or a sweaty high intensity workout.

Be KIND to yourself: It's not uncommon for people to workout because they dislike something about their physical
bodies or are embarrassed about their physical fitness. Choosing to workout out out of love for yourself and your
body and focusing on the good working out as being an act of kindness (helping increase your energy, reduce your
stress, and keep your body working optimally) will keep your motivation sky high and make working out more
pleasurable.

REDEFINE exercise -- every minute counts: Press the snooze button one too many times and only have time for a
10 minute walk instead of the spin class you had planned? Go for it. A shorter workout is better than no workout. No
time for a 30 minute walk, like ever? You can also break your workout up into pockets throughout the day. Lose that
all-or-nothing mentality and remember that consistency is key in building any habit. Every minute counts and exercise
isn't limited to the confines of a gym.

Set goals, not limits: Our minds tend to get hung up on what we can't do, our current limitations -- how our squats
need work, how we can't run a mile without stopping, how we still can't touch our toes after all these years. Choose to
see these obstacles as opportunities to set goals for yourself.

Change "I can't" to "I'll try": How many times have you told yourself you "can't" do something before even giving it a
try? We often underestimate ourselves. Make a pledge that you'll give everything a go at least once. Worst case, you
scale back and work your way up to something that's too challenging for you right now!

Focus on progress, not perfection: It's easy to focus on your goals, but don't lose sight of the process. Focus on
your progress each day and celebrate your successes (however big or small) along the way.

PLAN ahead: Make use of the fill-in-the-blank templates we've provided you with to plan your workouts ahead of
time. This can help you mentally prepare, get pumped, and be more efficient when you get to doing each workout.

But be FLEXIBLE: … And by flexible we don't mean being able to touch your toes (or at least just yet). Being flexible
means that you are able to roll with the curveballs life throws you. Planned to hit the gym for a bike ride and some
light weights after work but forget your sneakers? Go home, take a walk, and do a bodyweight workout.

And LISTEN TO YOUR BODY! Did you plan for an intense workout but woke up feeling sore everywhere? Your
workout plan is a guide, but your body is the ultimate guide. Some days it might be best to sit a sweaty cardio session
in for some yoga or a lighter strength session. Ask your body what it wants and needs today, in this moment, and
honor it.
