Last week I talked about our personal trainers Toronto ”4 Ways To Make Your New Year’s Resolutions Count”, this week I’d like to share with the main reasons I believe most people fail in their new year’s resolutions to lose weight.
We know the failure rate is incredibly high (98%), and we know that this year, like every year before so many people will invest time and money, yet fail to any traction or achieve any long-term results.
Knowing what the most common pitfalls are can prevent frustration, disappointment, and ultimately failure when it comes to starting a new fitness program. So here are my personal trainers Toronto top 5 mistakes most people make with their new year’s weight loss resolutions:
- Setting an unattainable goal. We all want to jump directly to our ideal health and fitness level, but there are steps in between. Avoid setting the same high standard resolutions that you continue to unsuccessfully achieve year after year. This will only set you up for frustration, failure, and disappointment.
- Starting an Incomplete program. To be successful, a program must be complete. A complete program includes attention to nutrition, resistance training, and cardiovascular exercise – all leading to a “synergy” effect for maximum results. All of our personal trainers Toronto programs are built on this concept.
- No accountability. Success achievers know that accountability is essential to move from intention to results. Without support and regular “check-up from the neck up,” life’s distractions quickly take many off course. Use accountability to stay on track with goals to avoid plateaus or backsliding.
- No professional guidance. Many begin a fitness program without defined goals or a plan to achieve them. To achieve significant, long term results, the guidance of an expert puts one on the right track.
- Push too hard, too soon. We all come into January raring to go, full of energy and enthusiasm for our new goals and new year, but in reality our body needs to be given time to adjust to a new exercise program. When starting a new personal trainers Toronto program we need to avoid pushing too hard in the beginning, which can causes soreness, stiffness, even pulled or torn muscles.
Our “4-Week Transformation” Fitness Boot Camp is designed to specifically overcome all the threats to success listed here, and provide all the systems, coaching and tools you need to 1. set realistic goals, 2. have a complete program (including nutrition), 3. keep you accountable through your instructors and peers, 4. have a professionally designed, personal trainers Toronto plan which is progressive and takes into account where you are today (#5).
