Work Out Harder with Non-Workout Based Goals

In my spinning classes, we do speed drills. For the longer speed drills and when we are riding at 90 to 100% of our maximum speed, instead of having students envision themselves on a road, going for the finish line (although I do give them this option), I encourage students to think about a goal or a dream they have, and use the speed drills to push themselves towards that goal or dream. Whether you’re in a spinning class at 100% speed or walking on the treadmill, try meditating on something you’d like to see come into fruition, and push yourself harder or longer to reach that goal while working out.
