Hi! In this case I exercise a little bit, for 30 minutes or just dance for 5-10 minutes. You only need to do little thing to progress.
I think about how much better I usually feel after I excercise (especially when I dont feel like it). I also make sure to choose something I’m familiar with, there’s nothing worse than trying to learn a new routine when you’re not totally focused. I just get frustrated and quit early!
I remind myself that it’s ONLY like a half hour at most of my time and then I can go to sleep without regret. I know it’ll better me and the progress I’ll make will be worth the fraction of time I spent just moving. End your day knowing you did everything to better yourself. You’ll start the next morning on the right foot.
Do the one minute prompt that’s included in this app. Either it jumpstarts me into doing more or I feel better knowing I did something small rather than nothing at all.
I usually workout in the morning because I know I’m less likely to do it later in the day. However, if I’m taking a workout class that’s only offered in the afternoon, I schedule my workout time the same way I schedule a doctors appointment or a work meeting. This means that I put it on my calendar, mark myself out of the office for that time slot, and make sure to change into my workout gear as early as I can. I find that if I have on workout clothes, it partially guilts me into going to workout because I’ve spent time and energy putting on the clothes. I also keep my gym back (fully stocked) in my trunk so I don’t have an excuse to skip exercising.
If I am too tired, I would rest for the night and try again the next day. Or alternatively, push myself through and feel glad I did it afterwards.
Start with stretching. I like doing beginner yoga when I’m tired, it’s better than just sitting and sometimes I feel good enough to then do something that takes some more energy.

I do some walking first. Some nice strides to get the body moving. I also tend to do exercise classes like Zumba, Yoga, or PiYo. Being with a group motivates even more!!
I take a step back, relax a little bit and then i ask if anyone would like to go walk with me. Walking is still moving your body but much less strenuous and, its always so much easier with someone there. It ends up being much more fun and less like a grueling chore.
