Do not workout everyday...give yourself a day to recover. Your body needs that time off! Your mind needs it even more.
Working out everyday defeats the purpose and will lead to injuries and backsliding. Mix up those workouts and always make sure you take time for you. And by that I mean using some free time to quiet your mind from the pressures of daily life. Now with the weather improving, take a walk, leave the Ipod at home and just soak in the sounds of nature.
If you live in a city, try going to a park, or if you can't then download some nature sounds and just use those to relax and unwind. No matter what your job is, you need some "mind" time to let go.
And for those of you trying to lose weight, it's even more important to have that day to allow your body to rest and relax. We all know that stress kills, but it also affects the Cortisol levels in your body and that will cause you to retain fat, especially belly fat.
