Do Your New Year's Weight Loss Resolutions Suck!
It also offers a fresh opportunity to take advantage of some post-holiday motivation. A time to finally get serious about the workouts you resolved to do this year. And there is no better plan to follow than the combination of short strength and interval workouts.
Don't let that little voice in your head talk you out of success. If you want to get lean so that you can be lean for next summer, than now is the time to take action.
Tip 1 - Write your goals down, and be specific about them. Research has shown that when people write the goals down and are very clear about the details, they tend to have more success. So don't just think "i want to lose weight", write down "I want to lose 5 pounds". Then take that goal and post it so you see it every day. And think about it every day as well.
And as you go about your day, remember this..."Everything that you do is either taking you closer to or farther away from your goal". Think about that at every meal, or every time you choose to sit on the couch instead of exercising.
Tip 2 - Plan your nutrition. Spend 2 hours on the weekend shopping and preparing as many meals as you can for the workweek ahead. Don't get caught without good food at lunch and have to resort to the food court. That is not going to help. Pack your protein, fruits, vegetables, and nuts and you'll have good quality snack and lunch foods to give you energy while helping you control your appetite and burn fat.
Tip 3 - Use a professionally designed training program to help you get the most bang for your buck. Don't just go in to the gym unprepared. You'll be overwhelmed by the January crowds and you'll likely quit out of frustration.
So plan, prepare, and be confident that you have everything in place with your nutrition and training.
And finally, Tip 4 - Get social support. Have friends join you for workouts. Recruit your doctor, a nutritionist, and trainer to be on your side. Do all of these and you'll always have someone to turn to during tough times.
Good luck, and may this be your best year ever!
