loud pulsing music.
3. Develop and repeat a mantra, an uplifting statement of what you know you can do. This will help you develop a positive attitude and have an unshakable belief in yourself. It will naturally get stronger as you reach goals.
4. Practice mental toughness. This is the mindset that helps you stay determined, focused and confident. Self-talk is a motivator that can help keep your confidence level high. Talk to yourself the same way you’d encourage a loved one: Remind yourself of your skills, your accomplishments and future goals.
5. Use mental imagery. Picture yourself reaching each goal, whether it’s completing a spin class or a 5K run. Tap into the image whenever you need to refocus during exercise.
