How Are Your "New You" Resolutions Going?

It is already February; how are your fitness goals for the New Year going? 

Let's make it happen! Succeed At Your Health and Fitness Goals in 2015! Learn how to eat right and  exercise effectively.  are a few healpful tips to out you on your path to success!

The secret to a Successful New Years Resolutions is to first choose an attainable goal that will work for you. Choosing to make a fitness resolution year after year that you may have been unsuccessful at in the past only sets you up for frustration and failure.

The average success rate for New Years resolutions is a just 20 percent but do not let that discourage you, there are ways to assure that you will be in that 20 percent category. Here are a few suggestions to get you on your way to your own personal success and how to enjoy exercise and a healthier lifestyle.

First of all, fitness and a healthy lifestyle need to be a part of your everyday life and you need to give yourself a break and realize that results take time and a lot of effort on your part, most experts agree that it takes an average of 20 days to create a habit and six months for it to actually become part of your everyday life and you need to mentally prepare yourself and get motivated for your fitness success.

Most people focus on the SCALE and the number that they see for their weight, I consider this to be one of your "BAD" habits and it should be the "FIRST" resolution that you make and keep! Watching the scale will make you lose focus on your goal because you are too focused on what you consider negative, which is your weight and the number on the scale. Remember muscle weighs more than fat and weight training increases bone density, muscle mass and strength while burning fat!

My advice to people who really want to achieve their fitness goals is to start exercising with a personal trainer  before the holidays are in full swing. Try not to wait until January when you already have overdone all the extra food, holiday cheer and parties that come with the holiday season. But if you really prefer the traditional "New Year's Resolution" that is fine just plan accordingly with your goals mapped out and set your mind to succeed!

The 20 percent who succeed start slow and gradually, making the necessary adjustments that it takes to succeed with their fitness goals over time. Enjoy the holidays, your family and friends and begin your exercise program now by exercising as you go through the season’s festivities, it will help burn those extra calories and even reduce the stress of all the extra responsibilities that come with the holiday planning of the season and it has the added benefit of increasing your energy too! Give yourself the gift of a personal trainer with a health coaching background that can help you focus and achieve your goals.

Make 2015 your year for the “NEXT” level of your fitness goals!
