If you are like me the last part of 2008 was full of foods that you don't normally eat and less activity than normal. Well I am here to give you some tips that can help us all get back on track and make this the fittest year yet!
1-Make a decision to throw out the leftover candy, sweets etc. I know it seems like waste but at least it won't end up on your "waist." Then eliminate the things from your diet that will hinder progress. Soda, alcohol and other calorie dense junk. Total elimination for a time will make you feel and look better.
2-Commit now, commit to yourself and verbalize to a friend, spouse or other significant person in your life. This will give you a level of accountability.
3-Now that you have committed, write down some goals, specific ones. Simply saying, "lose weight" is not it, say I want to lose X number of pounds by a certain date. Give yourself a written target & timeline.
4-Add in some for of strength training to your exercise program. Build some muscle & burn some fat.
5-Get a heart rate monitor to regulate your exercise intensity. Having a visual reference will ensure you don't go into cruise mode during your cardio workouts and will help you go harder!
Make up your mind to have a great and successful year!
