“proper training and nutrition around the holidays can be tough, and therefore, it is not uncommon for people to put their health and fitness goals on hold during the holidays by overeating/drinking and not exercising at all.”

“Whether it is to gain specific strength, balance, speed or weight loss, competition in and out of the gym can be a key factor to accomplish these goals.”

Real progress is made by consistently sticking to a plan that is designed to help you reach your goals over months and years, not days or a few weeks.

SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely.

A “training” mindset makes it easier to push through tough workouts, it makes cancelling sessions much harder to do, and it makes decisions outside of the gym easier.  

A good trainer can shorten the exercise learning curve if you’re new to exercising, keep you safe, provide structure to your training, hold you accountable, and help you make progress more quickly than you could on your own.
