The New Year’s Resolution Trap

Wednesday, January 7th, 2009

By Hassan Wicker.

New Year’s day…it never fails to evoke feelings of hope and renewal, but is it really a trap?

You’ve been handed a proverbial clean slate - another chance to shrug off your bad habits and reach for your dreams.

In an attempt to bottle that New Year’s vigor, you’ll make a few New Year’s Resolutions. But before you put pen to paper, you ought to know this:

It has been reported that 92 % of all New Year’s Resolutions end in failure.

That means that less than 1 out of every 10 people will successful accomplish their resolutions in 2009.

Ouch - those statistics are brutal. Who in their right mind would take the time to make resolutions when failure is that imminent?

As your trusted source for fitness advice, I’d like to coach you though this sticky situation. Yes, most people fail to achieve their New Year’s Resolutions. However, I am going to clue you in on what the 92% do wrong and teach you what the 8% who succeed do right.

First up, the 92% who failed. These well meaning folks shared a common mistake that put the nail in their coffin before they’d even begun.

They bit off more than they could chew.

In all the excitement of becoming a better person and changing their life in the New Year they made the crucial mistake of committing to do too much. But reality set in, a few weeks or even days into their reformed life, and they gave up.

The 92% gave themselves an easy way out. They approached their resolution with an ‘all or nothing’ attitude. Once the ‘all’ became too tough they opted for ‘nothing’. And just like that another resolution ended in failure - end of story.

Now let’s examine the 8% who succeed with their resolutions year after year. The key to their success is quite simple (you may have even guessed it by now).

They set realistic goals.

I’ll repeat that… they set REALISTIC goals.
•    Instead of resolving to lose 50 pounds by June, they commit to exercise 3-4 times each week.
•    Instead of resolving to give up all carbs, they commit to bring healthy snacks to work instead eating from the vending machine.
•    Instead of resolving to drop 3 sizes in 3 months, they commit to losing 1 pound each week until they reach their desired size.
•    Instead of resolving to never eat out again, they commit to eating healthy all week and rewarding themselves with one meal out on the weekends.
Did you see the difference?

If you want your resolution to stick then think of something simple and realistic. Sure, it certainly won’t sound as cool as the resolutions that the 92% make - but they aren’t going to keep theirs anyway.

Remember that the whole point of making a New Year’s Resolution is to become a healthier, happier and more successful person. Small changes done consistently will make a big difference.

If your New Year’s Resolution has to do with losing weight and getting into great shape (and whose isn’t?) then guarantee your success by working with a fitness expert who can show you the ropes and guide you to success.

I’d love to team up with you - together we will transform your body in 2009!

Three Basic Types of Workouts

Wednesday, January 9th, 2008

Any type of workout can be broken down into one of three categories, resistance training, cardiovascular training and flexibility training. Each has a different goal and fills a different need. Each is needed in some way to maintain optimum health or optimum athletic performance.

A common example of resistance training is weight training. This is the area of emphasis for most personal trainers. Cardiovascular training is aerobic whereas resistance training is generally anaerobic for the specific muscle group or muscle groups being targeted. Common examples of cardiovascular training include running, cycling, swimming and aerobic classes. Common forms of flexibility training include stretching, Pilates, and Yoga.

As is the case with most people that train themselves, people tend to focus on the exercises and the type of exercises that they do well. We’ve all seen body builders with poor flexibility that also have no cardiovascular efficiency. Some can’t come close to touching their toes or couldn’t walk 100 meters fast without their heart rate exceeding the recommendation for maximum heart rate for their age. We’ve also all seen marathon runners that have no muscle tone and don’t look like they could lift a pencil without achieving muscular failure. I’ve also seen many very flexible people that have very little strength or cardiovascular endurance.

The bottom line in our over mechanized society is that we all need to do all three types of exercise. There are many good trainers and many good programs that incorporate all three. I include all three in my training. I do active isolated stretching and occasionally (not often enough) I include Pilates to work on my Achilles heel, which is flexibility. I am on my way back from several hamstring injuries and should soon be again be a nationally competitive middle distance runner. I am involved everyday with weight training as the owner of Real Fitness Trainers (www.realfitnessga.com). I have no shortage of great training partners to weight train with.

I have a goal that I will need to be on all three types of training to reach. When I was 48 years old I could run a mile in under five minutes and I could bench press 300 pounds. I would like to reach those two levels again on the same day now that I will be 52 next week. I might be wrong about this, but if I can claim this, I may be the only man over 50 years old in the world that can do both of these things. To accomplish this goal will require me being strong, flexible and to have excellent cardiovascular fitness. Your fitness goals may not be quite as lofty, but you can achieve them better and sooner if you incorporate all three types of training into your routine.
