As we step into a brand new year, many individuals are eagerly setting resolutions to embrace a healthier and more active lifestyle. However, challenges can arise along the journey to achieving these goals.
Crunch Fitness, which has a location at 1336 Bristol Pike, Bensalem, offers the following tips to help people not only set resolutions, but stick to them throughout the year:
- Get a gym buddy, which keeps accountability when visiting the gym and sticking to a new workout schedule. It can enhance the gym experience with some friendly competition.
- Be incremental and add positive “micro-habits” to easily build changes into routines. If a goal is to lose weight, start by adding a few extra minutes to cardio workouts. Set smaller and achievable goals.
- Journaling can assist in meeting goals through the act of simply listing them out, which helps make them tangible and actionable. Keep a record of workout progress each day.
- Ask for guidance from personal trainers, who can be a great resource for first-time gym-goers. They create custom programs designed 100 percent around the new member.
