You worked for it.
You pushed yourself to the limit.
You feel every aching muscle in your body.
You deserve that piece of cheesecake (or maybe two) because you worked out all week.
Back away from the cheesecake, ladies. There are other ways to reward yourself than junk food and guilty pleasure-ridden foods.
Here are some tips on how to reward your hardworking ways without the looming guilt..
Reward yourself every week: At the end of each week, plan something fun you’ll do if you’ve completed all your workouts. A movie, a massage, a shopping trip, an afternoon at the beach, a manicure/pedicure, etc.
Give yourself an extra ten minutes: At the end of your workout in the morning, use that extra time to sit in the hot tub, take an extra long shower, pick up some coffee from your favorite coffee joint, stretch or nap.
Reward yourself every month: Plan bigger rewards for completing all your workouts in one month. A weekend trip, a girls night out, a new pair of running shoes, a new outfit, a day at the spa, etc. Choose something that makes you smile when you think about it and get moving!
