Variety

I love variety when exercising. I try classes, machines, activities at least 3 times before making a final decision of whether I like it or not. I love trying new things. It keeps me motivated, moving and keeps me from getting bored.

That is so true! It also keeps your body from getting too used to one type of workout. It's a great way to work out of a plateau too! Thanks for sharing!
