Fitness: Goal Setting


Fun or Fitness

When you start a home fitness plan you need to set some goals. Without any goal setting you will not perform your fitness goals.

Questions to Ask Yourself

Why are you beginning your rehearsal program? Do you want to lose weight? Do you want to increase your strength? Do you want to lower something like your cholesterol? You have to pick something you can measure.

Picking a goal of to feel salutary is not something you can measure. It is abstract and only you can conclude if you done that type of fitness goal.

A measured goal is better. A good one is how speedily can you run a mile? If initially it takes you 10 minutes to run 1 mile then you can set a goal to run 1 mile in 9 minutes. Running a mile in a positive time is an perfect type of goal.

Cannot Be Too Easy

Anytime you set a goal it must be inviting and push you. At the same time the goal setting has to be realistic. As in the previous example if you currently run 1 mile in 10 minutes setting a goal to run 1 mile in 5 minutes in the next month is not realistic. If you decided to set the time-frame to be in the next 6 months to run a 5-minute mile then you may perform that goal.

Fitness goals need to be a progression of getting great and better.

Let's keep using the fitness goal of running 1 mile in 5 minutes, but you currently at 10 minutes. Your next time should be to run 1 mile in 9 minutes. You cannot expect to your body to run fast just because you said you want to run that time.

Here is a Good Fitness Plan

You need to run or train daily. You have to train your heart and body to get used to running. If it has been years since you engaged in this type of rehearsal you may want to only run a quarter mile and the walk the next quarter mile. For the day this may be all you do.

Each day you need to run a wee added and a wee longer. At the end of the week or the beginning of the week go run a mile and see how speedily you can run a mile. The time should be decreasing with your increased time exercising.

Staying on your fitness plan will be the hardest part of goal setting. You need to continue to workout to perform running the 9-minute mile. Once you conquer this time you need to look at running an 8-minute mile.

Keep Getting great and great Everyday

The steadily improving time will help keep you on your fitness plan and perform your goal.

Now I used running as the rehearsal to part your success. However, you can use any type of fitness goal such as weight loss or waist size to see how you are progressing.

I like using some type of rehearsal schedule because it can help perform two or more goals in one. Remember running a positive time will also potentially lower my cholesterol and lower my weight. I am sort of multi-tasking my goals of running faster, losing weight and lowering my cholesterol all in one exercise: running.

You can do the same with other fitness plans. Get creative and have fun goal setting with your fitness plan.
