Last week I talked about motivation, or MOT.i.v.a.t.i.o.n. to be more exact.  The basic concept of that post was to help you realize that you need to find that thing that gets you moving, the reason why you want to lose weight or get stronger, keeping in mind that anything you had previously and lost, you didn’t lose over night.

So what’s next?  Hopefully you left a comment on the last post and let us all know what your goals are moving forward.  Your specific goals, the ones you want to achieve and are so serious about them that you’ve posted them on this page  and you will succeed in reaching them!

Back to what’s next…take ACTION.

Post this somewhere you can see it everyday, at least 10 times a day, and remember that actions you will be putting in place.

Set up a plan to get your goals in motion.  Hold yourself accountable, and if you don’t have a local friend or family member that will do that for you, use this site.

Do your goals mean that you will exercise a minimum of four times a week?

Do your goals mean that you will watch your nutrition and be mindful of the foods you chose to consume?

Do your goals reflect a lifestyle change that you will embrace moving forward?

Tell us what your next step is, and let me know if you need and help along the way.

I just talked about falling off the workout wagon a few days ago.

Man, is it hard to get back on, but here’s what I’ve found to be the most effective. Just do it! I know, easier said than done right?

Here’s the second part to that, make a big deal about getting back on the wagon. Make the first workout back different than what you usually do. Hit some trails, jump on your bike, go to the track for an awesome sprinting and body-weight workout. Anything that’s a little different than what you typically do. It’ll give you an energized feeling, and tomorrow you’ll see how great you feel, and you’ll be headed for your second workout without any thought.

Think about this one too, of course it’s easier to stay on the couch or in front of the computer, but if health & fitness were easy, everyone would be doing it, this gives you something to brag a bit about.

Have fun, and let me know what fun workouts you have in store.
