Three Tips And Five Ideas Of Weight Loss Exercise Plans That Don’t Involve Gym

If gym is the place you hate (or simply have no time to visit), one of the home weight loss exercise plans could be the best solution for you. If you need to lose weight but have no time to dedicate to this exciting process, you can still select a type of exercise that fits into your life.

Let me share some ideas with you. Hopefully you will find one or two new ideas in the list that you did not try... yet!

But before I go into weight loss exercise plans, allow me to share three tips that can triple your chances of success

Three Tips How To Be Successful And Effective Using a No-Gym Exercise Plan

1. Pick the exercise you like. Pick the activity you can enjoy and schedule it.

   This is important because if you take your exercise is a duty, a chore, you will not stick to it. When you are under stress, (and let’s face it, most of us are), such unwanted exercise becomes a stressor instead of a stress relief. Your mind will try to get rid of extra stressors and balance your life with some pleasures ( or guilty pleasures, such as food), and that’s why you will struggle to keep exercising.

   Doing the activity you like increases amount of "happy hormones" in your body and helps fight stress. The less stress hormone, cortisone, you have in your body, the better you lose weight.

2. Always supplement your exercise weight loss plan with diet plan.

Diet without exercise and exercise without diet are both doomed to fail. You will struggle an uphill battle if you don’t have a diet plan that helps you lose weight. Check out my Vegetarian weight loss plan, or use any recipes from this website. They all are low fat whole food recipes that will keep you satiated and support your weight loss.

3. Try different things.

This idea usually meets the most resistance. We like sticking to familiar things, and as adults we often afraid to start new things for fear of looking bad doing them. I find that many people I talked to are especially apprehensive of two activities: dancing and yoga. With dancing, I can understand. After all, people are afraid of public humiliation. I don’t know what is it about yoga that men are so suspicious about? Many of them would rather pay a visit to a proctologist than to a yoga studio.

Yet, it is through trying and getting over your initial apprehension that you expand your horizons, learn new things and meet new people.
