That time of the month and the regular holiday dinners are not the only thing that can cause bloating.

No matter who you are, or what sex you are, you will always experience bloating at least once in your lifetime. There are lists of medical reasons, both serious and not, that discuss what can cause bloating. However, sometimes, and normally the biggest reason, for bloating is our diet.

I can still remember the moment I crossed the finish line when I ran my first ever half-marathon. Sweat was pouring off of me from everywhere, my heart felt like it was going to beat out of my chest. I knew when I stopped running my legs would feel like jelly, and even scarier than that, the Gatorade I had chugged at mile 12 wasn’t sitting well in my stomach.

When we begin to workout or start a training plan, we become stuck on those habits. If we’re running, we go on the same paths but maybe make a few new turns to add some extra time. If we go to a gym, we may have specific machines we use on certain days. There may be a certain place and time we go to do yoga or Pilates.

Sometimes finding the motivation and energy to exercise is hard. We’ve all been there. The trick is to set yourself up for success from the start and use these 9 tips to get you in exercise mode before you even begin:

Chose a type of exercise that you enjoy 

If you hate running, don’t join a running club and start training for a marathon. If you hate going to spinning classes, don’t sign up to the spin studio for a 10 week pass. Don’t start doing exercise, because you should, do exercise because you want to. This means different things for different people in terms of what exercise you choose, how often and how long you exercise and it’s important to figure out what this means for you. Many people start a running program because they should run, or their friend runs and then fall away without success because it is so un-enjoyable and just a daily task. Instead, choose the exercise that you like and will do consistently and that will allow you to push to achieve your goals.
