The Weights Are Too Heavy: Excuses Why You Aren't Working Out With Kettlebells

By Greg Diener


Let's say you are desiring to go to the gym and exercise in order to lose weight, but you suddenly feel you don't want to go through with it. Chances are you and many people have felt that going to the gym, can be a tremendous strain on you emotionally and physically. Whether it's running on the treadmill or lifting a set of kettlebells, the physical demands can turn people off to the gym. This article provides a common list of excuses people have to avoid working out.

1. I can't workout in front of other people: Many people I've met have said that they feel uncomfortable working out in front of others. Whether it's the public locker rooms or the fact that the other gym members are in better shape, something about working out in front of others keeps these people from getting in their exercise. Often, these self-proclaimed fitness-center-phobes make a vow to themselves to workout at home only to relax on the couch and say they'll get to it later. The desire offered from working out, whether it be with a friend or strangers, can get a person lifting weights with a renewed sense of vigor.

2. Working out is very boring: Cardio on a treadmill will make somebody feel like they are trapped inside of cage. Lifting large weights like dumbbells can be tough for many gym-rats. For anybody who has been wanting to find a way to improve their technique, ask people about what they do to stay in shape every day? Ask about what movements they perform in their workout, going to different fitness classes could help you out. You should never be bored when performing exercises at your local gymnasium or fitness center.

3. I'm healthy already: Many people stubbornly maintain the belief that they don't need to exercise. Whether they have a fast metabolism, already eat healthily, have good genes, or work a job where they're on their feet - exercise just doesn't seem like a priority. But the certainty is that metabolism slows down and a healthier diet works best alongside a structured fitness routine. Just half an hour of exercise a day can benefit a person's standards of living even if they're already in good physical shape. Lifting kettlebells or stepping on the treadmill can also help improve a person's day-to-day mood. Even the healthiest person without exercise could benefit from exercise.

In the long run, the time we take thinking up and giving reason as to why we can't exercise could be nicer spent actually exercising. The health benefits of a little exercise each day go a long way. The ideal and bad excuses that a person can create are only that - excuses. At the end of the day, step on the treadmill or uncover a set of weights instead of lounging around and your body will say thanks for it.
