REASONS YOU MIGHT STRUGGLE TO STICK TO IT…

First, let’s talk about why you might give up. So we’ve put together the top three causes you might fall short of your wellness resolutions. Don’t freak out if you typically do these – we will help you change your mindset & habits! 

#1. All At Once. 

If you try to overhaul your lifestyle all at once, you will likely be unsuccessful and may give up altogether. Instead of deciding to workout every day and completely change your diet overnight, make realistic milestone goals and focus on consistency.

#2. Reality Matters. 

The cliché, “slow and steady wins the race,” is true for your New Years’ resolutions. You must set a realistic timeline for your health and exercise objectives. Even Arnold Schwarzenegger didn’t become a world-champion bodybuilder overnight.

#3. One is the Loneliest Number. 

Whether you are a fitness fanatic or just beginning to exercise, you will benefit from expert guidance and motivation. Without a coach, you are more likely to get discouraged, frustrated, and injured, leaving your resolutions in the dust.

SO NOW, HOW DO I STICK TO MY GOALS/RESOLUTIONS?

BABY STEPS

You didn’t learn to walk, read, or write on the same day, right? So, change one thing at a time rather than changing everything. Take a step-ladder approach and target adding one positive habit each week. 

If your objective is to increase your daily exercise, start slowly with one or two weekly workouts.

To boost your nutrition, start with something simple like eating two servings of fruits and veggies daily, increasing the amount over time.

To enhance your hydration, add 24 ounces of water and work up to 60 ounces at the end of one month.

These small successes will increase confidence and create new, healthy habits.

TALK TO A COACH. 

A coach can be your number one secret weapon to hit your goal. Find someone you can connect with who will support, motivate, and help keep you on track. You want a qualified professional willing to invest in your well-being, not just your workouts.
