You must be thinking, “come on! You put this up in a weight loss website?”

Well yes? What’s wrong with it? You will be surprised that sometimes you are a victim of addiction to exercise. It’s an inherent natural of all human to want to move around.

5 signs that you are actually addicted to exercise, without you actually knowing it:

1. You feel like stretching. Stretching is actually a precursor to the want to exercise. But most people fall short of doing the full course as they are accustomed to the quickie. Remedy: Remember the pep talk techniques from a previous post? For at least 5 sessions, use cue words like ‘run!’ or ’swim!’ when you consciously do a simple stretch or a stretch regime. Here comes the hard part, do what you have told yourself to do in the cue words. Trust me that this works. After a few sessions you will feel awkward not pleasing your inner desire.
2. You like your Wii Sports. So, playing Wii sports games make you feel like a pro. Well, at least to the paper thin audiences. Why not try the new thing? I am sure if you can do so well in the bowling or golf game, you can excel in the real thing. C’mon, trust the game’s accuracy! Be a real amateur : Playing those virtual games already makes you technically superior than a greenhorn. Now you just need to be physically superior. Pick up a sport that you enjoyed in games. See if the sport is taught in your area. If not, suggest to meet up those in the game forum near you to organise a casual weekend sports outing.
3. You are waiting with bated breathe for the release of Wii Fit. Finally, something fun for exercise! Well, at least after May this year. I have seen the Wii Fit preview. It really blows my mine away! This sacred game should be in every household who cares enough on leading a healthy lifestyle. It’s what we advocates here: Losing weight, the fun way. Don’t just wait: Instead of waiting for Wii Fit to hit the shelves, you can anticipate by signing up for a yoga or step aerobics class at your nearby fitness centre. The routines you learned in these classes will make you enjoy the game further. Sign up tomorrow and you will be just in time for the game’s release.
4. You thought watching the sports news is a sport. Watching your favourite team winning a competition may make you feel like you are part of them. Want to be part of them? Doing the actual thing makes you feel even more attached to your winning team. At the same time, you are able to understand the game better with all the whys and hows easily answer for themselves.
5. You seriously feel that lack of exercise makes you lethargic. So got that FEELING. Don’t need to procrastinate. Just do it! It’s true, lack of exercise really can cause lethargy. Easier said than done, but that’s the whole point: To be frank to you, I hasn’t been exercising for the past one week. But it is due to a big toe injury that really makes even walking a chore. But I still tried to run through the pain last night. I tell you, it’s the best decision I have taken for the past 2 weeks. It really spurred me on to want to run and swim more. I felt so strong after the run not because it’s easily done, but because I am so proud I made the right decision and threw away the procrastination. Easier said than done, but that’s the whole point.
