Going 2 the Gym but not progressing?

You've been working for month on your fitness and trying to build up your muscle strength but feel no further forward. This could be the reason why,

Not in the moment: You are too engrossed about reading what celeb has done what in the magazine you've taken along to the gym.

Your phone: You haven't taken time out from the world and decided to slow down your workout or stop to txt away about what you will or may not be doing this weekend.

Chatting: You spend too much time chatting with your gym buddy.

Same routine: You do the same routine each week, same pieces of equipment used, same weight used, same amount of rep's, no variation.

Solution suggesting for you,

Get rid of the magazine and set your mind (focus) for what you want. You wanted to exercise so do so, the magazine will still be there when you get back.

Turn off your phone and exercise for a solid 45 minutes to an hour. It should be your time now.

Challenge your self during your workout. If you do a 10 minutes cardio routine, every 2 minutes up the pace a little then go back down to your normal rate. This will challenge your body as your hear rate keeps changing.

Try a heavier weight for one set (8 repetitions of lifting a weight) then go back down to your normal weight.

Get your friend to help motivate you, share turns on equipment. save the chat for afterwards. wouldn't it be better to discuss about how much more you did during your exercise routine that day.
