Exercise Your “Blahs” Away With These Vitality-Boosting Moves

Working out today? What's the point? I'm not trying to be a b---- , I mean really- what's the point, the purpose, the motivation for moving your body today. You see, if each workout is purpose-driven or goal-oriented, instead of being just "blah," you are bound to get in an even better sweat session because each time you think, "I'm over it, I'm giving up now," you will realize that you haven't yet fulfilled your goal- the intention that you created for that particular workout. And then really, what's the point of that (yes, that was a bitchy tone), you're just letting yourself down.

Goal: Vitality, Energy, Life Force.

Different from intense, quick burst exercises intended to soup up your metabolism, if your goal is to be more energized the best workouts are low intensity, long duration exercises. So what can you do?

Do It Outside

Walk at a quick clip for an hour outside.

Do It at A Gym

Take an upbeat cardio or spinning class.
