With the New Year finally upon us, it’s time
to reflect on the year that has passed and set our eyes on the future. Many
people use this time to make New Year’s resolutions. Of those, the most common
is related to health, fitness, and overall lifestyle adjustments.
During the month of January, you’ll see health
foods, gym memberships, and gym equipment go on sale everywhere and many people
either set up their own home gyms or get a membership at a gym they’ve been
wanting to try. This is all a great way to get started on a healthier and more
active lifestyle but unfortunately, statistics state that many of these people
who set their eyes on healthier lifestyles as a New Year’s resolution will fall
short and quit before the year is half over.
Over 80% of New Year’s resolutions never get
completed, but yours doesn’t have to be a part of that number. Most of these
failures were due in part to a lack of motivation and drive. With motivational
decals in your fitness center of choice, you can no doubt keep yourself on target
to obtaining your dreams.
This being said, here are a few things worth
remembering:
For many, staying motivated is difficult. It’s
so easy to say that you’ll start tomorrow, or to make an excuse as to why you
can’t start right here and now. But if you have time to sit down and watch
Netflix or go out to eat dinner, you have time to squeeze in a 10-minute
workout. You just have to be stronger than your excuses.
Nothing good in life ever came easy, and the
same can be said about exercising. You didn’t get your current body overnight,
and your dream body won’t happen overnight either. It will take hard work,
dedication, and sacrifices – but in the end, it will be worth it. Just keep reminding yourself of that end goal
that you’re working so hard to achieve.
Progress is always a huge win. This is also
why so many people take before and after gym workout pictures so that they can
reflect back at the progress made. While your scales may not change, the tape
measure will. Reflect back at where you were a few months ago, weeks ago, or
even yesterday. Are the same workouts giving you trouble? Are your clothes more
loose? Is it easier squeezing that workout into your daily life? This is all
progress worth taking note of!
The most important thing above all else is to
remember who you are doing this for. Fitness is a lifestyle change that affects
you and you alone. No one else can do your workout for you and no one else can
gain your muscles, lose your weight, or feel exhausted on your behalf. Your
workouts are for you, so make yourself proud and do your best.
