Burn It Off!!!!

This is the time of year that people say, "oh...I feel horrible because I at or drank too much during the holidays, but, I swear I'm going to start training the 1st of the year!" Tons of people say this, but more than 80% of people who have new year's resolutions never even make it into their tennis shoes to start, or start and drop out quickly. Instead of waiting, get started now, and here are a few tips to keep you on track:

1.) Do something that you actually like doing, instead of doing something you dread or hate. If you used to play soccer and enjoy it, enroll in a soccer league. If you like to play hacky sack (footbag), then start by doing that. Exercising does not require that you be miserable while doing it. Believe it or not, doing something you love by going out and playing basketball or ping pong etc., is still exercise because you are moving! Movement is the key to a great quality of life! If you do not move, it will tear down your body on a cellular lever!

2.) Keep a journal for your diet and you exercise. Putting everything down in written form will help you to actually see what you are eating and what you are doing. This will allow you to see if you need to pick it up physically, and also what you are eating when and how much water you take in per day.

3.) Write down at least 3 goals and place them on your bathroom mirror so you at least see them when you wake up and before you go to bed everyday. How do we know what we are striving for without goals? Also, don't write down broad goals, ie, I want to lose weight. Be more specific, ie, I would like to lose 6 pounds in 3 weeks. Be realistic with your Goals so you are not let down!
Please let me know if you have any questions or if you would like to train or for us to set up a customized, individually specific program for you!
Happy Holidays!
