Happy Spring! What’s Your Fitness Goal this Season?

Happy Spring!

What’s your fitness goal this Spring season? When setting goals I recommend using this acronym, courtesy of the American Council on Exercise: 

S.M.A.R.T =  Small, measurable, attainable, realistic and timebound.

For example by May 30th, my primary goal is to get the strength back in my left hip, glute and quads, as I continue to recover from my knee surgery. 

Is this goal small? Yes.

Is it measurable? Certainly, between my physical therapist and my experience as a trainer we can measure strength gains. 

Is it attainable? Absolutely – yes.

Is it realistic? Yes – I need to be strong and fit to continue training others and keep up with my fitness activities.

Is it timebound? Yes – by the end of May – I expect to note significant progress.

Need Assistance? Email me your goal and I’ll help you put the S.M.A.R.T. acronym to use!

Good Luck!

What do you think of when the word fitness comes to mind? What images and thoughts appear? What are you doing in that moment? Is it enjoyable or are you just going through the motions? Beth's philosophy is that fitness should be fun, goal-oriented, realistic and integrated into daily life, regardless of age, gender, health and level. Attitude is everything when it comes to health and fitness. She inspires and motivates every individual to utilize their greatest gifts: their body, heart and mind, by creating a dynamic and functional program that incorporates fitness into everyday life. The days of tedious and monotonous workouts are over! Instead, you get an exhilarating program that suits you. Variety is the spice of life! Participating in a lifelong fitness program that excites you, empowers you, and reflects you and your goals is your ultimate health and fitness success story.
