WELCOME TO CHANGE-FALL Fitness Challenge!
Commit to Change-Fall Fitness Challenge!
Are you feeling stuck, not making any noticeable progress 168/4, need to jump start your fitness, can’t get rid of the stubborn belly fat? If any of those questions are true for you, this challenge is for you.
Imagine waking up each day feeling stronger, more energetic with a clear and well defined path for progress towards your better self. The path to better health, fitness and vitality seems lined with endless burpees and unreasonable sacrifices and disappointments. However, the secret to unlocking your full potential and making measurable progress, lies is in the art of “Mastering the Mundane”. ..small daily disciplines, done consistently over time, produces amazing results. The ultimate key to a successful outcome is investing your effort in the right disciplines.

What’s the Challenge?
The Fall challenge is an opportunity to recalibrate. For only 4weeks, commit to a new approach, by setting new goals, expectations and disciplines for yourself. By committing yourself to a higher standard, over time (4 weeks), with an accountability partner and guided objectives, you will experience measurable changes in the way you look and feel. Remember the above quote-“Winning is uncomfortable”. Be willing to embrace the discomfort that yields a very worthwhile return.
You will be given weekly and daily objectives that will serve as your roadmap to success. You will be encouraged to set goals, discover your “WHY”, stay focused and get rid of the things that don’t support your goals.
You will learn more about the underlying components of wellness that truly support change. You will be exposed and encouraged to eliminate the things that are compromising your results.
GET READY TO WIN BY BEING WILLING TO COMMIT!!!
SETTING GOALS:
Setting goals will be important for this challenge. It will give you something to strive towards that. Will keep you plugged in, in case your initial motivation fades. Set a goal(s) that is attainable with consistency and effort. I encourage everyone to consider setting a Stretch Goal, one that will only be achievable with your very best effort, given it all that you have to give and the 1% more.
Goals are something that we put our effort toward achieving. Goals motivate us to work on our mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Setting an achievable goal is crucial for building momentum and staying motivated. Here are examples of realistic goals that embody Martin's framework: I want to safely lose 10 pounds within 4 weeks! I want to fit in my favorite red dress for the New Year’s Party! Make my health a priority and by adhering to the principles of the challenge as a lifestyle change.
JOURNALING:
Journaling is far more important than you might think. Most times we lose sight of what we’re supposed to do day to day or even how much we’ve done in a day. When we journal it reminds us, with great accuracy on a daily basis what we signed up for, what we’re trying to achieve, and it gives us a clear record of how committed we have been to the process. You will be able to incorporate a broader range of variables (objective and subjective) to evaluate your success-things that are more nuance (how you feel). When implemented, journaling can prove to be a success formula to be used repeatedly and serve as a window to better understand where you missed the mark.
TRACK YOUR PROGRESS
The effective method to measure your performance towards your goal is maintaining a fitness journal, where you can log workouts, track the types of exercises, the intensity, write down diet recommendations and make any personal notes on how much you felt during and after the session. This journal helps you to plan your future workouts and activities that yield the best results for you.
You have probably heard it said that “Quitters never win and Winners never quit”.? I would have to disagree with this statement. Through sports and my 35 years in fitness, I have found that Winners quit often, they quit doing the things that don’t serve their goals, objectives and higher purpose. Don’t underestimate the power of quitting the things that don’t serve your desired outcome.

CELEBRATE SUCCESS
When you fully commit, embrace the discomfort, set goals and journal, the pathway to success will become clear. The countless, small disciplines and recognizing each achievement along the way is crucial for sustained motivation and commitment. Celebrating small victories means you acknowledge the effort and progress you have made, no matter how minor it was.
BIG celebrations are also a good idea! We will all get together for a Celebration Happy Hour at the completion of our challenge (Nov 9th or 16)
Push your limits and make this fall 2024 your most active season yet-finish the year strong!
Let's embark on this journey together, by setting the foundation for health and well-being that's successful and sustainable.
