New Years Resolutions
This is the time of the year when nearly EVERYONE starts to think about (if you haven’t already) a few resolutions that they want to work on for the New Year. Among those that are the most popular are “losing weight” or “getting back into shape”. Sound familiar?
Setting a New Year’s resolution is a great idea, but many times those that are set are very ambiguous and have no action plan to follow to keep those resolutions. If you have a resolution to “lose weight” for 2016, you need to be more specific about what that means or associate a specific goal that allows your to work towards and help you keep the resolution that you set for yourself.
A better way to state “I want to lose some weight in 2016.” would be; “Starting in January 2016, I plan to workout 3-4 days a week so that I can lose 25 pounds by the end March before I go on that cruise in the Caribbean.”
Doesn’t that sound more like a statement that has a more specific purpose behind it? Doesn’t having the specifics about how you plan to go about losing some weight feel like it is more obtainable?
Starting a fitness program like 21 Day Fix, Focus T25,or the new Hammer and Chisel takes a lot of the guesswork out of the process is one way to accomplish this. Everything from the workout that you are supposed to do on that specific day is all laid out for you, as well as the nutrition plan to accompany the fitness program to ensure the best results.
Goal Setting Resource
We all have goals, or at least we should. I want everyone to start thinking about what YOUR goals are for the next couple of weeks or months. I want you to write down your health and fitness goals for 2016, share them with someone to help keep you accountable – share them with me if you like! Put them somewhere that you will see them everyday – on the bathroom mirror, in your closet or on a post-it note stuck to your refrigerator. The more that you see that goal of yours, the more you think about it, the more that you will have that goal in mind and be more committed to achieving it!
DOWNLOAD YOUR GOAL SETTING WORKSHEET HERE:
A goal that hasn’t been written down is just a dream! So, think about you goals, but also check out this page on my website and download the Goal Setting Worksheet.
Print it out and FILL IT OUT!
Keep this piece of paper somewhere that you will see it everyday so that it will continually be at the forefront of your mind. Share your goals with someone else and ask them to help you reach it! You will be surprised by how many people are willing to do that for you.
Think back to the beginning of 2015 or even 2014 when you might have had the same goals set for those years. Did you do some of those things I mentioned above? Were you just “kinda committed” to that goal of yours?
Need a Coach?
If you need to find someone that will hold you accountable, answer your questions, help you, and PUSH YOU for the entire duration of your workout! Luckily for you, that’s what me and my team are here for. If you don’t have a coach yet and want one, I’d love to be your coach and help you through a fitness program.
