5 Easy Tips to Stay Motivated! - Motivational Video

TOP 5 WAYS TO STAY MOTIVATED:

First, you're going to want to set your goals. What you plan to do, Where you plan to do it, when you plan to exercise, how, using any available equipment and who you plan to look up to, physique wise, in order to set your dream goal.

Scheduling a consistent time to workout. If you tell yourself you're going to workout "sometime during the day" then you're not making it a priority. And if you plan on getting into shape and staying motivated then it's going to have to remain a top priority! Set the number of days you'll be working out a week and the time of day and stick to that plan. That's what separates the dudes from the Buff Dudes!

Measuring Your Progress. By measuring your progress you won't have to just guess if you've made any progress or not, you'll have solid proof! Take progress pictures in a room with consistent lighting at the same time of day once every couple of weeks. Combine that with taking measurements and weighing yourself. That way, when you have days when you're feeling unmotivated, you can just look at how far you've advanced by looking at older progress pictures of yourself. It works wonders!

Injury or Improper Nutrition. Getting into shape is more than just making it to the gym every day. The chair of consistency has 4 legs - Working Out, Proper Sleep, Nutrition & Cardio. Remove one of these legs and the table becomes shakey, remove two and the table falls over! Always remember proper sleep and hydration in addition to fueling yourself properly with food. And don't think that the more you work out the faster you'll reach your goals. Moderation and consistency is key! Take at least 1 day off a week to rest & recover in order to avoid overtraining. And if you feel you're more than just fatigued but actually injured don't be the tough guy and work through it. Find professional help!

Motivational Tip number 5. You need to stay away from negativity, and surround yourself with like minded individuals with similar goals. As the old sayings go 'misery loves company but iron sharpens iron.' Try and avoid energy vampires or those who wish to hold you down. If you can't find like minded company, stay strong with tip number 2 and stay consistent with your schedule. It won't be easy, but nothing ever worth doing ever was. Especially if you wanna become Buff.

"are you god? "well. close. im a buff dude"

[JoseHernandez-iusj]

I'm 14 and I just started lifting a month ago to prepare for soccer season and all your tips and videos have been extremely helpful and useful. So thank you and please keep making videos!

[lwAtErOnEl]

"Who you plan to look up to physique-wise." Brandon, obviously. haha

[crossofintimidation]

I've been using pictures/weight/measurements for awhile and they work really well. I recently also added a lifting log to keep track of my advancement in weight lifting too. I used to do it mentally, but actually seeing it in black and white helps a lot.

[rasmuswulvik]

i look up to these guys! simply the best, funniest, "professional made"( meaning good filming and editing) fitness-channel on youtube

[PermanentHigh]

I really like your channel bros. It's helped me a lot in the beginning of my quest to be a Buff Dude. Those videos about the form for exercises, the dos and donts etc, real quality stuff.

I'd really like to see you guys squat more though. Maybe talk about paused squats, stretching to improve depth, training for maxes etc.

Keep the quality stuff coming. Good edits, good humor, great attitudes.

[HellGod]

Really entertaining way explaining amateurs how the busy people reach their goals.

[dominiquerichard]

another thing you can do with keeping track is record your workouts and weights used. I injured my back a while ago and just got back into the gym 2 weeks ago. Im lifting a fraction of what i did before i got injured but my weights are going up dramatically each week. 5-15lbs on most or 90 pounds on my leg press after 1 week. feels good when i look back on it each week

[baciudenis]

Love the quality of those videos ! Keep up the good work Buff Dudes  !

[TheTjodalf]

So glad to hear that epic drum music at the end of the video again :D

[shloopy]

I like your videos because they're cute, fun witty and basically accessible for guys like me who just want to have a good time working out and getting fit without any attitude

[Michael.F.B.]

Just starting to get my act together and you guys are my gurus. You've got a great gentle approach for newcomers, seriously, you guys are amazing! I hope to report back some success in the future.

[stevenmcneal]

I love you guys so much. Your content has so much quality it can only be the result of pure passion. Keep it up dudes!

[RealRuler]

The guy on the scale at 2:03 is exactly how I feel when I weigh myself. Lost 16 pounds and gotten much stronger, but still feel like my gut is the most impressive part of me. =(
