One rep at a time…
One set at a time….
One hour at a time…
One day at a time…
This habit of creating a simple savings account can be created for exercise as well.
The thought of saving a penny a day can be painful because it doesn’t seem like much until you start counting after several months or even a year.
Give yourself a chance by writing your BIG goal down on paper and having it visible everyday so that the habit can be created (this is the breaking point)
Exercise, I believe can be a similar comparison- Do something everyday and the results will take care of themselves:
1. Set your athletic shoes by the front door
2. Set out your clothes for easy dressing in the morning
3. Meal prep and shop one week at a time
4. Cook your meals and follow through as you exercise
5. Exercise purposefully 20-30 minutes of moderate intensity (65-85% max HR) 2-3 days per week including 3 components (flexibility, strength and conditioning
ONE rep, ONE set, ONE hour, ONE day at a time to reach your goals
