Fit-tastically Survive the Holidays

December 24, 2010 by

[HTML1] Set yourself up for fitness success through the holidays. Use a 1-10 scale to assess desire to lounge vs desire to exercise. What if your scale gives equal numbers for resting and working out? How do you choose? How do you get yourself off the couch and into the gym? Compare how you will feel if sedentary vs active. What if pop tarts and dark chocolate figure into your day?

You really can achieve workout success by shifting your focus to self-choice instead of self-control. Also, get a friend to hold you accountable. Or to hold your hand. Or your chocolate.

Join us as we offer more strategies to help you successfully reach your fitness goals in doable, proven ways.  Today’s episode packs in psychology, eating tips, and a motivating tool in 5 minutes.

Another thank you to Brian Williams for composing our theme music.
