Your simple guide – Planning for the long term.

Taking a long-term approach to improving your health and fitness goals means we need to focus on intent, objectives, goals and a mission to accomplish.

The big picture mission is simple, we want to be happy, healthy and strong – both mentally and physically.

Being consistent with healthy habits like drinking water, meal prepping, and eating real foods is key to accomplishing your long-term goals.

Intent without action accomplishes nothing.

 

Setting goals is easy.

Being accountable for those goals is the hard part – and that’s where working with a coach in a programme customised to your needs is important.

First, let’s start with mapping out a long-term approach.

Follow these three easy steps:

1 – Begin with the end in mind: What do you want to achieve? How would you like to feel when you get there?
2 – Start small. The little wins will snowball into larger wins down the hill. Consistency wins.
3Establish SMART Goals.

 

What are SMART goals?

Glad you asked!

S – Specific; Should be simple and defined what you are going to do.

M – Measure; Tangible evidence so you can achieve the goal.

A – Attainable; They should push you just outside your comfort zone.

R – Results-Focused; Goals should measure outcomes, not activities.

T – Time-Bound; Goals should be linked to a time frame that creates a sense of urgency.

 

Here’s an example

 This what your goals may look like if you use the same process to plan out some nutrition goals:

– I will eat a balanced breakfast using the plate method at least 5 days out of seven each week.

– I will prep my lunches in advance using 3 compartment containers filled with balanced portions of lean proteins, green vegetables, healthy fats, and healthy carbohydrates for the next month to deal with busy times of the day.

– I will eat balanced evening meals with lean proteins, green vegetables, healthy fats, and healthy carbohydrates for nightly for the next 3 months.

– In the next 6 months, I will log my meals daily to learn about my macronutrient balance and work with my nutrition coach to stay accountable for losing 15 kilos in my customized nutrition coaching program.

– I will drink at least one glass of water every time I consume food.

– I will enlist the support of a colleague, family member, or friend as an accountability partner to make sure that we are eating healthy balanced meals 90% of the time, and getting to the gym at 2-4 times per week.

– I will work with my nutrition coach to stay accountable for losing 15 kilos in my customized nutrition coaching program.
