Are you getting tired of the same ole workout routine? Or maybe you just aren’t shedding the pounds you wanted. Well, your personality based on your Zodiac sign has a lot to do with how you exercise and stay fit. There are some signs of the Zodiac that can’t be stuck in a routine and shy away, while other revels in routine and perseverance. So what exercises should you be doing based on your sign?
Aries
Your personality suggests that you would do better with a personalized training plan. You should find a training program that keeps you in check and accountable for your progress. Personal trainers will help you shed the pounds while at the same time keep you motivated and focused instead of competitive. The only person you should be going up against is yourself and besting your time and repetitions for ultimate burn and weight loss. You should also look into personal sports like tennis where you are besting the other person and keeping fit.
Taurus
You will get the most out of dance classes that burn calories while keeping you engaged and entertained at the same time. Because you are flirtatious, being in a studio with other members will help you to express your more sensual nature while keeping it fun. Plus, dance comes in all shapes and forms which will keep you occupied learning the different styles of dance while burning calories. Zumba anyone?
Gemini
The daily routine just won’t cut it for you. You would rather jump to one exercise to another without having to stick to one thing. While it is great to try different activities, you need to join a high-intensity interval training group like a boot camp or cycling class. Both of these training groups are short enough to keep you focused and engaged and still sweat.
Cancer
Tough Mudder Run is right up your alley. You love to socialize and get to know people and join in group activities that will help shed some pounds, but you need something and someone to keep you motivated to keep going. Not only does the Tough Mudder push you to your limits, but it also feeds your need to compete and with your friends running with you, you will find the course fun, exciting without it feeling like you are exercising too hard. Plus, the Tough Mudder isn’t nearly as strenuous as the Spartan Race so you will have fun and get an overall workout your body needs.
Leo
You like to flaunt your abilities and talents and being a part of a group setting will help feed your ego and burn off the calories. The best exercises for you would be teaming up with Taurus and get some dance lessons. You love being center stage, and dance competitions are right up your alley. Not only will you be center stage with everyone watching you, but you will also burn calories and have a great time.
Virgo
You aren’t interested in counting calories or even burning them for that matter. Your focus runs deeper as you ponder what is going on with your inner self. You will find yoga or pilates to be the best solution for keeping your body shaped and toned that offers you the release you need.
Libra
Your logical sense may outweigh your inner warrior, but deep down you are a natural born fighter. This inner self will be best brought out through contact sports like Rugby, Football, and Soccer. Although you are gentle, you have another side of you that is dying to get out. If you find yourself unbalanced and need to relieve some stress, Kickboxing is right up your alley and will keep your body lean and fit.
Scorpio
You are intense, and your workout program should be just as intense as you are. You are at your best when your goals are front and center. Training for a marathon or rafting down a raging river are both the best workouts for you. The thrill of rushing through white water will fill you with pride and crossing that finish line is just one more thing to add to your ever impressive resume.
Sagittarius
The sky is the limit when it comes to working out and staying fit. You love the outdoors and would be exceptional at all sports including skiing, rock climbing, or just hitting obstacle course at a local park. The only downside is that you are prone to injuries and need ample time to warm up and stretch beforehand.
Capricorn
You need a hardcore workout to keep your interest such as training for Ironman, Tough Mudder, or Spartan. The thrill of accomplishment and the intense workout will appeal to the self-disciplined Capricorns. You have the motivation as long as your goals are set in stone and climbing Mount Everest is one hardcore goal that could be your finest achievement and still have the time of your life.
Aquarius
You get bored with daily routines no matter the outcome. You love being a part of a team and would be happy playing any sport from kickball to baseball that allows your competitive side to shine through. You also excel in individual sports like swimming as long as you are a part of the team that is striving for the end prize.
Pisces
You are not a competitive person. Your focus is more on the inner self and achieving harmony within yourself. You don’t like team sports as that takes away from the self. Your best way to lose weight and stay in shape is through Yoga. Yoga will help shape your body and keep you centered allowing you the time to meditate and get in tune with your body and mind.
