Smart goal setting

When setting a new goal we often forget to add the specific element into our program, for example, If want to lose weight ,you need first to understand how much weight would you like to lose ? And when you would like to lose this by.

One of the best ways to up to date by check your goals when setting your program is by using the SMARTER principles.

Specific (What exercise ?)

I want to lose weight X

I need to lose 5 lbs ?

Measurable (Planning for steady increase)

I want more stamina X

I want to play with my children without feeling tired and out of breath afterwards ?

Achievable (Can i achieve my target ?)

I want to drop two dress sizes in three weeks in time for my holiday X

I want to embark on a sensible weight loss programme to reduce my cloths size over the next 12 weeks ?

Realistic (Will i reach my aim ?)

I wont to run a marathon X

I wont to start a fitness program based around running so that increase my stamina and fitness so that i will be able to complete a marathon ?

Time (How long ?)

I want to incorporate more abdominal exercises into my fitness program ?

Enjoy (Don’t put anything you don’t like into your programme )

I don’t like running but i hear that its the best exercise for the body X

I don’t like running, i enjoy swimming ?
