4 Tips For Staying Motivated When Learning How To Get Thin Arms

By Katherine Crawford M.S.

Figuring out how to get thin arms will not happen overnight. While there are certain approaches that are more effective than others, you will still have to put forth some degree of effort over a period of time.

Unfortunately, this is where most thin-arm hopefuls fall off the wagon.

How many times have you seen someone start a fitness program only to end it weeks later? You see, starting something is very easy, but actually finishing it is much harder. Why? Because motivation cannot be bottled.

So without further ado, here are 4 tips for staying motivated when learning how to get thin arms:

1. Have a daily routine. It's absolutely critical that you have a daily routine of mental exercise. You shouldn't address motivation once it begins to fade, by this time it's too late. Preventing is far easier than curing.

2. Don't rely on motivational speeches. Motivational speeches are great for getting you fired up for short periods of time. But the afterglow fades quickly. If you want lasting motivation, you have to modify your thought processes.

3. Write it down. Dealing with motivation-crushing thoughts within the boundaries of your head is like trying to hoard a vicious pack of fruit flies. You have to keep some type of physical log in order to deconstruct and eliminate them.

4. Don't overestimate. Most women overestimate how hard it is to get thin arms. One strategy to counteract this is to keep a before and after log of activities. For instance, write down how hard you think it is to exercise at 100% effort. Once you complete the workout, write down how hard it actually was. More often than not, you'll notice that you overestimate how hard things are.

Unfortunately, no matter how well you are at motivating yourself, you will fail. The key here is to get right back up as soon as possible. In other words, speed of resiliency is the name of the game. The most successful women that figure out how to get thin arms have the fastest speeds of resiliency.
