Challenge Yourself - Having a Goal to Strive for is the Key to Great Fitness
You’ve made goals for yourself at work, or in your personal life, but you haven’t made any goals for getting into shape. Taking that first step to writing down fitness goals can be very scary, particularly if you have a large goal to obtain.
Think about where you want to be, what would “in shape” look like for you? Once you answer that question then you can start to make your plan. Some other questions you need to find answers to are:
-
Where Will You Work Out? – This doesn’t have to be an expensive health club membership. You can find resources on the internet or in books and magazines that can help you work out in and around your home if that is what you need to do.
-
What Time Will You Work Out? – There are several different theories about when the best time to work out is. The bottom line is you need to work out when it is best for you whether that is first thing in the morning, in the middle of the day, or in the evening when you have the kids in bed. No matter when you decide to work out, stay committed to that time and follow through.
-
What Will You Do For Your Work Out? – There are hundreds, maybe even thousands of different ways to work out and improve your level of fitness. Whether you walk, run, swim, lift weights, take a yoga class, or just walk the stairs in your home, you can find things to do to work out.
With your end result in mind, set a goal to work out two times the first week, then three the second week and so on until you reach the fitness level you are looking for. By accomplishing a series of small goals, you will quickly add up wins and be on the way to your ultimate fitness and exercise goal.
