What are your fitness Goals?
#1. Set Goals, What are you working towards, do you have aspirations, do you want to lose weight, gain muscle, run a mile? The importance of goal setting isn’t a new thing, its been proven time after time that writing down your goals will dramatically increase the chances of reaching those goals. If you don’t have any goals, how are you going to know when you accomplished one or two or ten? Take the next minute and write down on a piece of paper 3 fitness goals.
- First Goal: this goal is something that you are going to do in the next 3 hrs that will contribute to your bigger goals. example – take the dog for a walk, toss the ice cream in the freezer, or find a workout buddy.
- Second Goal: write down one short term goal, something you have been wanting to accomplish. This must be accomplished with in one month.
- Third Goal: this goal is the big picture. Picture yourself a year from now, what things do you want to change or accomplish? Do you need to lose 30 lbs, run a marathon, or just become a more active person?
#2. Make a Plan, under each one of your goals, jot down a couple of steps on how you plan to complete this goal. This doesn’t need to be exact or perfect.
#3. Take Action, Now that you have 3 new goals and pretty solid steps on how you are going to accomplish these goals, TAKE ACTION! Make sure to do something today, tomorrow, next week and next month that contributes to your bigger goal. Do not let these goals escape your thoughts.
I have attached a beginner workout, food journal and workout journal. So if these could help you, use them!
Beginner full body workout – complete this at least 2-3 times per week.
Food Journal – keep track of at least 3 full days, you might be surprised!
Workout Journal – record how each workout went, this way you will know when its time to kick it up a notch.
What does success mean to you?
who knows, maybe you could be driving a porsche!
