Keeping your New Year's Fitness Resolution Sassy



Every January I hear the same fitness goals again and again "I want to run a half-marathon by March or I'm hoping to lose 10 pounds in a month. The problem with these goals is they are too large. They need to be broken down. By breaking your larger New Year’s resolutions into smaller more reachable fitness targets and tasks you will stay motivated and increase your odds of success. For example if your goal is losing weight maybe for the next 4 weeks you commit to cutting added sugar out of your diet 4 days a week and on those days you work out. Make appointments to workout. Schedule your classes online, pay in advance, just do whatever you need to do to guarantee you'll work out.
A personal trainer can  help you plan for and get over the inevitable hurdles that try to cramp your workout; for example, illness, injury, or family and work obligations.
