Happy New Year! The new year brings new resolutions. Fitness and weight loss are usually among them. If you belong to a gym, you’ll probably notice a higher number of new members or old members that have started showing up again to try to work on their resolutions.

As the weeks go by, the number of members seem to dwindle and by February, the gym usually stabilizes back to normal numbers. That’s because many people do not have the drive to keep up with their fitness goals and eventually stop trying.

But not you! You’re going to keep your resolution, right? Here are 3 things that can help you stick to your plan and achieve your goals.

  1. Set realistic and measurable goals. Setting goals with measurable results will help you stay on track towards achieving them. Objective numbers such as losing 2 pounds towards a weight loss goal or walking 5 minutes longer uninterrupted will help you see results.
  2. Choose forms of exercise that you enjoy doing. Exercise plans are easier to stick to if you enjoy the activity you are doing. Listening to music or audiobooks or watching television can also help you get through workouts.
  3. Work out with a friend or family member. You can help encourage each other and motivate one another on days you may not feel like a workout. It can also be more enjoyable to achieve your goals with a friend.

There are a variety of ways to exercise and sticking to your plan can be difficult, but the rewards are worth it. These are just a few things that can help you reach your fitness goals this year. Finding what works for you can help you stick with your plan and achieve your goals.
