Okay, this isn’t for everyone, but if you enjoy competitive sports, consider using competition as a main motivational driver!

Joining a team or competing in an individual sport will help you reach your exercise goals as you tap into your competitive spirit.

Martial arts, racquet sports, soccer, basketball, jai alai, or caber tossing—anything that lets you strive for the prize!

And as a reminder, if you haven’t competed in a while, start out easy. You don’t need an injury setting you back.
