From saving money to following fitness goals, we all try to stick to our new year resolutions. Leading a healthy lifestyle is amongst the most important resolutions that we make. However, most of us tend to follow the self-made fitness rules for only a few weeks diligently and fail to stick to them till March. If you don’t want that to happen with you this year, then you must read this blog. We will give you some useful tips that will help you stick to your new year resolutions.
Staying True to Your Fitness Goals
Do you want to stick to your fitness goals this year and not break your resolution? Here’s what you should do:
1. Set Realistic Goals
First and foremost thing that you need to keep in mind before you start making your fitness new year’s resolutions is that your goals should be realistic. You might try to completely overhaul almost everything in your everyday routine and start a new fitness regime right from 1st January. However, if you do not set realistic goals, then you might not be able to follow them for long.
We would recommend you start with small and achievable fitness goals for a better chance of success. Small and manageable changes can easily turn into habits and give you success. For example: suddenly excluding carbs from your diet regime cannot go for a long period of time. Your body will long for carbs within a short time as well as will lack energy too. What you can do is reduce the amount of unhealthy carbs in your diet and stick to healthy carbs.
2. Download Health Applications
One of the best ways to stay motivated to do your workout and follow your diet chart is to have a health tracker application on your mobile. Download a health application from Google Play Store and try to keep a track of what you are eating and how much you are working out.
You need to set your fitness goals and other data first in order to get a curated plan. The app will set your calorie intake, water intake, calories you need to burn, and more. You need to track your progress and the application will constantly give reminders to you.
3. Widen the Definition of Fitness
Most of us relate fitness to hardcore exercises. It’s great if you have already made your fitness goals for the year. However, if you haven’t, then we have some tips for you. It is not necessary that you need to join a gym to get that toned body, anyway. If you are unable to go to the gym for any reason, you can follow a workout routine from home.
You can start cycling, dancing, yoga, or running. Anything that makes you happy and has the potential to reduce your body fat can be a part of your regime.
4. Chalk Out a Proper Plan
Remember how you planned a fitness resolution 2024 and couldn’t follow it? You have to make a proper diet chart that will make sure you get the right nutrients without gulping huge unhealthy calories. You have to take out a fixed time from your busy schedule and dedicate it to burning the calories that you have already gulped down.
Plan your exercise sessions daily without fail. Also, plan everything ahead and do not start planning all your resolutions on 1st January 2024. Begin at a slow and steady pace.
5. Motivate Yourself
No one else in this world can motivate you to achieve your fitness goals as much as you yourself can. You have to decide how you are going to deal with the temptation of skipping your exercise sessions.
Doing exercise for 2 hours in a day and then skipping it for a week won’t help you. In the same manner, having a low-carb diet for two days and then having cheat days for a week will not give you the desired results.
Conclusion
You can begin by setting up fitness new year’s resolutions, and just ensure that you follow through. We hope the above discussed points will help you stay true to the fitness goals and keep yourself motivated for all the times to come. We wish you a happy and healthy year ahead.
