You'll need to look at three aspects — enjoyment, personalisation, and variety are the three aspects. As long as you enjoy the type of movement that you're doing, whether it's yoga, Pilates, or circuit training, you'll naturally want to continue doing it. And social interaction forms part of this enjoyment as well, which is why small group classes or run clubs are gaining popularity around the world. There's that sense of personal connection, and it builds that goal to show up, because you're not doing something in isolation.
Personalised training is important for hitting your fitness goals, but also for building confidence. It can be demoralising when you join a HIIT class that you're not prepared for, or struggle to complete a long run. An experienced trainer can guide you within your limits, and take you to the next level of training once you're ready.
Variety can also help you stay consistent, but it also has cognitive benefits — the novelty of trying something new improves neuroplasticity, which is the brain’s ability to adapt and change, which helps to reduce the risk of injuries and delays cognitive decline. At COMO Shambhala Singapore, we have over 15 types of classes in one space, which lets people choose from a whole list of mixed modalities, and it gives them a safe space to try new things.
