Setting Fitness Goals
|
Set your sights on short-term as well as long-term goals. For example, if your long-term goal is to walk one mile, then your short-term goal might be to walk the first quarter mile. Or, if your long-term goal is to lose 10 pounds, then focus on the immediate goal of the first two to three pounds. With short term-goals you will be less likely to push yourself too hard or too long.
Discuss your program and goals with family or friends. Their encouragement provides important support that can help keep you going. |
