The Guide To Keeping New Years Resolutions
The New Year is quickly creeping up on us. Do you have a New Year's Resolution? Well, if you're like most Americans (88 percent in 2001 according to a General Nutrition Centers poll), you have at least one resolution. And, if you are like the majority of these promise-makers, your resolution is probably related to health and fitness. In 2001 (according to GNC), 55 percent promised to eat healthier, 50 percent resolved to exercise more, and 38 percent wanted to lose weight. While resolutions are well-intentioned, unfortunately most people fail at keeping them. With all the hype surrounding these promises, it's easy to get caught up in them without really taking them seriously. We live in a throw-away society and even our resolutions, I'm afraid, are not immune. However, especially for promises that include improving our health it's in our best interest to not take them lightly. So, what's the secret to successful resolutions? While you can't wave a magic wand and make your resolution come true, there are some easy steps to take to make it easier to fulfill your promise to yourself.
On average only about 20% of us keep our New Year's resolutions. Unfortunately, some of the biggest failures are found in fitness resolutions. But don't let the statistics get you down. By following the tips above you'll be better equipped to fall into the successful 20% category. If you need professional help with a fitness-related resolution, visit www.workoutsforyou.com for help.
