So we finally made it, the holidays are behind us and the parties are over. It is time to look ahead to 2010, figure out where we want to be and how we go about getting there. One of the top resolutions is to get fit in the new year but how many of us actually follow through with it? We might last for 2 weeks or even a month but quickly lose interest. Being in the fitness industry for more that 15 years I have seen the cycle over and over again.
This excerpt pretty much says it all (http://articles.moneycentral.msn.com/SavingandDebt/ConsumerActionGuide/10ThingsYourGymWontTellYou.aspx)
“Most new recruits sign up in January, the busiest month for fitness clubs. That’s when well-intentioned souls trying to stick to their New Year’s resolutions flood their local gyms, often resulting in long lines at the treadmills, overtaxed gym staffs and towel shortages in the locker rooms.
But it’s not long before the throngs thin; most people who make those resolutions trip up in the first 90 days, says Alan Marlatt, the director of the Addictive Behaviors Research Center at theUniversity of Washington
. Indeed, that’s what clubs expect. “They bet on it,” says Meg Jordan, the editor of American Fitness magazine, adding that most gyms count on a 20% to 30% dropout rate.”
Crazy huh? Don’t be one of those people with good intentions but no follow through. Commit and invest the time and energy in yourself. There will always be days when you don’t feel like working out or eating healthy but think about the alternative and all that it brings. Feeling tired, being over weight, lack of confidence and self esteem, not fitting in your clothes, etc. Who needs that? Wouldn’t you rather feel amazing, look amazing and have confidence in yourself and your abilities?
The next step is taking action! Look for a workout that will help you reach your goals the most effectively and efficiently. This is where Stacy’s Boot Camp comes in.
