Fitness Challenges Are Good Things

Starting in September 2011, I began inviting people to participate in a fitness accountability group. These were small groups of 5 people or so. The goal is that we all work together and help each other create lifestyle habits toward better health! The results have been nothing short or awesome!

All of the participants did everything at home, on their own time and schedule. There were no in-person meetings or group workouts. Our Group interaction was done all on Facebook.
People got some great results! One, gentleman in particular joined one of our 30-day groups using 10-Minute workouts with Ten Minute Trainer. Darryl lost over 15 pounds and got great energy from Shakeology. He also lost a pant size! I am so proud of him!!

We started our group with a conference call where we all introduced ourselves and then dug into the the most important question we need to ask ourselves before starting a workout program.

What is your reason WHY? Answering this is the biggest motivation that will push you to reach your goals. It will help you blast through roadblocks (and we know they will happen)!

Each member shared on the group page and were encouraged to write and post their why somewhere they would see it and read it daily. This gives a clear purpose and focus when it comes to reaching health and fitness goals. It also makes daily choices sustainable so they transform into a lifestyle as opposed to one short moment in time.

So, I challenge you.

• What is your why?
• What do want to achieve and what will reaching those goals allow you to do?
• If you were to reach them, how would you feel?
• What would improve? And most importantly, what would you do to keep it that way?

What is your WHY?

How did our group get such great results and transform their journey into a lifetime of health and fitness? Well, they bundled all the right things together set them up for success. These are the very components I have used over the past decade to reach and maintain my results and also challenge myself to constantly improve.

The formula? Fitness + Nutrition + Support = Success!

I have seen people struggle when one or more of these components are missing. That?s why I was so ecstatic when Beachbody began offering Challenge Packs. They are the complete package of fitness, nutrition, support tools and free coaching for achieving health and fitness goals.

Each month I am leading these accountability ?challenge? groups using a specific workout program to meet the needs, interests and goals of the participants. We recently started a P90X Challenge Group and plan to launch a different group (or two) every month.? If you would like to be considered for one of these select group, please email me with your Why and ?fitness personality,? and I?ll match you up to an upcoming group.

If group accountability isn?t your ?thing,? you can always take advantage of a challenge pack and benefit from all of the fitness, nutrition and support.

I am often asked why I stay so disciplined in my eating and so committed working out every day.? It has been a process over the past decade when I decided that I was getting too fat, my desk job and poor habits were taking control and diabetes was in my future. Through daily exercise I feel good, look good and have an awesome attitude toward life. I also feel I?m much more pleasant to be around!

I know that if we are going to end this trend of obesity, it has top start with taking care of ourselves first and identifying why. If you?ve made a resolution each year to lose weight, make regular exercise adopt a healthy lifestyle and you find yourself failing year after year, take a moment to think about your ?why.?

Have it written down in a few short sentences and post it in as many places as possible to see it and read it daily. This is the first step in putting yourself first.

Hillary and I will help you get results. We will coach you!
