Stop nagging your husband for not exercising! These 3 tricks make him listen to you

There is some happiness weight gain during the passionate love period, but after being together for a long time, it gradually turns into middle-aged weight gain. Nine out of ten couples find that their bodies are not as tight as they used to be! Seeing my husband's beer belly getting bigger and bigger, and his waistline getting wider every year...how can I convince him to leave the TV and the sofa, and do exercise with me to stay healthy?

According to the report of "LiveStrong" website, there are several tips for you who have such troubles:

【Speak your mind】

Indeed, no one wants their bad habits or weaknesses to be discussed. This is a matter of face and even self-confidence, and it is no exception even with the closest person. So, when you are thinking in your heart, "You are already so fat, why don't you lose weight quickly?", the best thing to say is, "Although your belly is very comfortable to lie on, I also want to see you get back in shape~" In this way, not only will you successfully express your thoughts, but you will also not make him feel that his self-esteem is damaged!

Tips

1. When you casually mention exercise during a conversation, or when you hear that your friends are exercising, do you suggest that maybe we can join in? Avoid using a commanding or demanding tone to prevent your partner from rejecting the topic from the beginning.

2. Go see your husband for a health check! Men are usually more receptive to advice from doctors or authority figures.

3. Express how much you hope to spend the future with him. Yes, it sounds corny, but this is also one of the motivations that will make him willing to start exercising from the bottom of his heart!

【Find the fun in sports】

Although for many people, exercise itself is a happy thing, it is difficult for people who have not yet experienced the beauty of exercise to understand this. In order to maintain your partner’s enthusiasm for sports, don’t use the instructor-style training method and force him to get up and exercise in a rigid manner. Men are most afraid of going back to their military service days!

Tips

1. Let's make a sports plan just for the two of you! Having companions always makes boring things interesting, such as taking a 20-minute walk after dinner or jogging 3 kilometers in the morning. With your company, I believe that exercise will also become a way to warm up feelings.

2. If you are worried that your willpower is not strong enough, why not sign up for an exercise course together! Isn't it more meaningful for two people to supervise and encourage each other than staying at home every day watching DVDs and eating popcorn?

3. If the classes at the sports center are not attractive enough for you, then if your finances permit, you might want to try a gym membership, where you can enjoy premium SPA pools, massages and stretches, and one-on-one training with a coach... It sounds great, and once you spend the money, you'll become motivated even if you're not motivated!

[In a euphemistic way]

Exercise, like learning other things, also has a wall period. After a period of time, the initial novelty will be lost, and the training results may also reach a bottleneck. This is when it is easiest to become lazy. At this time, you who are by his side are the important motivation to encourage him to persevere. You can also help him cross the threshold invisibly through roundabout and tactful ways!

Tips

1. Is your significant other’s birthday coming up? Are you worried about what gift to give? Aerobic exercise DVDs are a practical and healthy choice, or home exercise equipment, or even a fitness class! I believe he will definitely understand your intentions.

2. "The dog needs more exercise. From now on, I'll leave the dog walking to you!" It's also a smart idea to use excuses other than exercise to let him go outside for more activities.

3. Praise your husband a lot! Tell him how handsome he is when he works out in the gym, and how much you like his flat stomach and strong muscles. Men just need a little vanity. Praise him at the right time to make him more confident, and he will even go to the gym on his own without your persuasion!

After reading the above three methods, I believe you already have a battle plan in your mind. Turn around and see if your husband is still curled up on the sofa in the living room? What to do next is up to you!
