It is the new year and the time where we say.. "right this year I'm going to get fit and healthy". I wish as many people would prioritise their health and fitness in the other 11 months of the year as they do in January, as we could see a big reduction in depression, stress and other related conditions. If this sounds like you then here are some of my top tips on how you can keep on track for a fitter, healthier, stronger you in 2015.
1. Do More
Instead of concentrating on eating less of this or that, focus on what you are going to add More of in 2015.
- More activity
- More lean protein
- More good fats
- More vegetables
- More water
- More weight lifting
- More fun at PB Fitness Bootcamps
Doing MORE Sounds a bit more manageable then deprivation.
The beauty about the more approach rather than restricting is that you're are giving your body more nutrients so it doesn't give you blood sugar dips that's leaves you craving the bad processed foods.
The more you move and enjoy exercise the better you feel about your body shape, health and fitness and the less you want to shove your face full with sugar and artificial food that doesn't make you feel great.
2. Break Down Your Goals
Take your long term goal (for example loosing X amount of weight, running 5k in X amount of time) set yourself an end date by which date you wish to achieve your overall goal. (It is vitally important that you set realistic time phases for your goals). You then need to break this long term goal down into shorter term goals for example 4 week or 2 week goals. By breaking your long term goal down your goal will seem a lot more achieveable and as you hit each short term goal this will also keep you motivated and focused to carry on.
3. Shout About It and Tell The World
Take to Facebook and Twitter, tell your friends and family what your goals are and when you want to achieve them by. This will not only act as motivation as you are now accountable for your goals, but people will also take interest in your goal and ask you how it is going. They will also offer you support and encouragement through the hard times and give you the motivation that you need to keep on going. Let people know when you reach each of your short term goals as again this acts as great motivation to keep going to your next short term goal. Don't forget, if you see one of your friends mentioning about reaching a goal then congratulate them and offer them the encouragement and motivation that they deserve.
4. Reward Yourself
When you achieve your short term goals then reward yourself with a treat. For example this could be a shopping trip for new clothes, a special meal, a special night out or anything you like. You need to remember that this treat is only for when you achieve your goals. If you treat yourself whenever you like then it will not work as motivation for you to carry on with your new lifestyle.5. Personal Training
If you know of someone who struggles to maintain motivation or needs a push in the right direction then don't forget there are a number of different Personal Training options that you could do with PB Fitness, which are designed for you and your needs and requirements to improve your relationship with your body, food and give you a health boost.
