This is the season when we all re-evaluate the year past and resolve to make changes. Often many moms are caught off guard by how little they have done for themselves. If you like to make new years resolutions, why not focus on making 2008 your year to get fit?
As Moms, we all know that taking the time to recharge and give back to yourself makes you a better mom. At FITMOM, we suggest you start the New Year on the right foot by "partnering for success." In recent months, this has been a very strong focus in our FITMOM program in terms of fostering results for our clients. For instance, in November, we began a documentary series (which will air online in the New Year) called, "Forty days to FITMOM."
In this series, we profile two women who were in need of a fitness intervention and were very motivated to change their ways. We emphasized from the very beginning that they were a team committed to success. What we have found is that sometimes women, especially moms, often have a hard time letting others down but have no problem putting their own needs aside.
Here are seven steps to a successful fitness/wellness partnership:
1. Discuss and write down goals (hiring a trainer may help to get you both off to a good start and it’s more cost effective as a twosome)
2. Plan and set times weekly to meet, workout and cook together.
3. Journal
4. Make a commitment to hold each other accountable in a caring and supportive way with phone calls, reminder emails, wakeup calls, and journal sharing.
5. Sign up for events and courses together.
6. Most importantly celebrate success together. Success should be defined in big and small landmarks such as sticking to and completing a workout, a week of no misses or running your first 10K.
7. Encourage healthy competition with yourself and your partner. This helps to demonstrate measurable results.
The year 2008 seems to have the vibe of a changing world – a world where we awaken ourselves to the idea of being in a global community. Partnerships of all shapes and sizes have their ups and downs but being committed to the outcome almost always yield success. Arrive at your fitness goals in 2008...with a date.
