Stick To It Tip #9

Now that you are at the end of your second month, it could be time to change things up once again. Maybe it's time to change training partners, play lists, exercises, reps, set, etc. Anything that might make you complacent about staying the course. Keep in mind your personality--if you like routine, make a minor change that doesn't upset your commitment; if you crave variety, change up when you stop making gains. This is a very vulnerable time for most exercisers, because they are past the honeymoon stage (excited about working out, learning new things) and may be tapering off some initial results (decrease in weight loss, less improvement in exercise). Again, keep in mind the other benefits of exercise and keep making the choice to remain physically active.
