Sometimes trying 3 minutes technique my brain just thinking it will be 3 minutes “oh that’s easy” let’s do it. If I do 3 minutes and feel like don’t want yo continue I don’t continue. But if I feel I don’t want to stop I continue to exercise
What helps me best, to do things that I want to do, but that don’t come naturally for me, is routines. I joined a gym I pass every day to and from work. And I decided to go Monday, Wednesday and Friday after work. This takes the guesswork and the feelings out of it. The question is not "do I want to go to the gym?”, the question is: "is it a gym day?" - this system and the mental reframe helps me a lot, because it’s not about feelings, it’s about facts (which day it is) and it’s way harder for my brain to argue with facts, than to decide if I want to do something.
