" Hey girls, Summer is around the corner and now that I&amp;#039;m digging my tank tops, skirts and bikinis out of the back of my closet, I need the confidence to wear them! The feeling I get after working out definitely makes me feel better about myself. It&amp;#039;s totally normal to go through ups and downs with your fitness routine. When Team Seventeen first started, I was really motivated to work out. Last month, not so much. To step my workout routine back into high gear, I relied on a few tips: - Make a vision board. Cut up old magazines and tack up images that inspire you or quotes that make you feel empowered. - Download some new tunes! Update your playlist with upbeat songs you love and only listen to them when you&amp;#039;re working out. You&amp;#039;ll look forward to the treadmill when some quality time with Pit Bull and Rihanna is involved! - Reward yourself with a little shopping. Have you been eyeing a cute pair of jeans from Urban Outfitters or a bathing suit from Victoria&amp;#039;s Secret? Use them to motivate you to workout! Not only will you enjoy the end reward, but you&amp;#039;ll feel great in your new outfit too. - Write down your goals. Whether it&amp;#039;s to be able to do 100 push-ups or cut 30 seconds off your mile, sometimes visualizing your goals in writing makes it more real. Plus the feeling of checking them off your list is such an awesome feeling. -Get some free workout swag. Seventeen is giving away tons of awesome prizes! Check it out. What are your tips? Lets motivate each other in the comments section! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
