12 Tips To Your Fitness Success - #9-12

I hope you've been finding these tips helpful and more importantly, putting them to use. Christmas has gone and the New Year is right around the corner. So to keep these timely for you and ensure you have all the firepower you need for 2009 I thought I'd finish off your last 4 tips.

Please takes note. These are probably the most important!

Visualize. If you've played sports you've probably done something similar. Or maybe if you've given a big speech or performance you've done it before. Visualizing exactly how that performance will go has been shown to increase the chances. So why shouldn't you apply that to your health and fitness goals?

Spend 10 minutes each day visualizing how you will look...how you will feel...how you will act...and so on. Picture your body and your life exactly as you want it.

Next is Take ACTION! Nothing happens without action. This is the whole problem with the famous book and movie called The Secret. Attraction needs action. It doesn't matter how much. Start with just one step. That's it! Then take two. And three. And so on. You will reach your goal before you know it.

Your 11th tip helps glue #9 and 10 together. Set Goals. It's crucial to your success. Setting goals does not mean thinking about them. It means writing them down and putting a deadline with them. Use the S.M.A.R.T. technique. All goals must be Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Timely. Set each one with that in mind and you're on your way to SMART goal.

And finally, your 12th tip, is the secret to success. It is the one step you'll take to ensure your success. Accountability and Support. Get it! And I don't mean your spouse or child. You should even be careful of a friend. Make sure there is no emotional realtionship in place that will get in the way. You want someone to hold you accountable to your program and most importantly, to your RESULTS! Get someone that will motivate you and support you. They will do more for you than any piece of equipment, superfood, pills or potions.

I'd like to help you with that accountability and support. That is what we do at FT. If you would like some more information on having a coach motivate, support, empower and hold you accountable to a program, request a complimentary consultation here.

To your fitness success,
