With that said, here are several tips on how to make exercise a habit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do something you enjoy.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This may sound simple, but if you enjoy riding a bike and despise running, then ride a bike. The more you enjoy it, the more likely you are to do it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Try new things.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Variety can keep it interesting, and interest can go a long way toward keeping you at it. So go ahead and learn a new skill or try a new routine. You may discover other forms of exercise you like.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do it with others.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Humans aren\u2019t only built for movement, they\u2019re also built for social interaction. Exercising with others encourages accountability and magnifies the neurochemical effects of the workout\u2013and it can make it more fun.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Exercise Isn\u2019t for Everyone<\/strong><br><br>These first three recommendations are mainly designed to help you enjoy exercise, which some experts have identified as a crucial factor in how beneficial exercise might be.<br><br>Neuroscientist <a href=\"https:\/\/pni.princeton.edu\/faculty\/elizabeth-gould\">Elizabeth Gould<\/a> believes this. She has played an instrumental role in researching adult neurogenesis and is responsible for some key discoveries in the field.&nbsp;<br><br>For instance, she has found that rewarding experiences affect neurogenesis and cell survival: Activities such as mating and running enhance neurogenesis in rats, and stressful experiences reduce it. While rats enjoy running, many humans don\u2019t. As she sees it, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tizzn8WJKjM\">if exercise isn\u2019t a rewarding experience for some people it may not confer neurological benefits to them<\/a>.&nbsp;<br><br>Scientists have found that some people are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S1469029216303119?utm_campaign=buffer&amp;utm_content=buffer6b41d&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=twitter.com\">genetically predisposed to enjoy exercise and others are not<\/a>\u2014a significant implication of this is that some people may have a hard time reaping the neurological <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/peter-attia-exercise\/\">benefits of exercise<\/a>.&nbsp;<br><br>Thus, while there\u2019s ample evidence to suggest that exercise is beneficial for the brain, it\u2019s not clear that those findings are complete\u2014a person&#8217;s enjoyment of exercise, either because of genetics or because of recommendations like these above, might affect how beneficial it is, and mean that not everyone may reap the psychological benefits Ratey discusses.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keep at it.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes the best way to stick to a routine is to simply remind yourself that you can\u2019t afford not to. When it comes to your mind and exercising, just remember that your body was built to move\u2014it <em>needs <\/em>to move. So, whatever you do, keep it up.
