Moving in May with your Virtual Personal Trainer
Movement Mission - 5/15/08 - Holding Yourself Accountable and Fitness
Challenge Sign-Up
"Does exercise help with pain management? The interval sessions seem
to be. I would so rather exercise than swallow pills that can damage
my liver. On days when I was down, there would be an email from my
'biggest fan' (usually felt like my only fan) to cheer me up and
encourage me. I am so glad that Marla met you and introduced you to
us all." - Rose
Good Morning No Excuse Ladies,
This is Jonathan Roche writing - your Virtual Personal Trainer.
Please keep focused on the fact that you don't have to do long
workouts or beat yourself up to get in shape - you just have to make
healthy choices each day, take baby steps and keep it fun!

WHY STRENGTH TRAINING IS SO IMPORTANT AND ABOUT A BONUS WORKOUT OPTION.
We can all find 6 minutes in our day to do this workout. REMEMBER, NO
EXCUSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOLDING YOURSELF ACCOUNTABLE:
I want you (yes, you) to make a firm commitment right now to how many
days you are going to exercise and how much time each day. And I want
you to write the days and times in your calendar as appointments with
yourself that are unbreakable (unless the kids are sick). Setting
firm goals helps you stay consistent.
Also, I want you to HOLD YOURSELF ACCOUNTABLE TO YOUR GOALS. If you
say "I am going to do a 30 minute interval workout on Mondays,
Wednesdays and Fridays and do a 6 minute No Excuses Workout on
Tuesdays and Thursdays, THEN YOU NEED TO STICK TO THAT AND NOT MAKE
EXCUSES AND MAKE IT HAPPEN. PERIOD. NO EXCUSES.
Sorry for the tough love, but I honestly care about all of you want to
see you improve your health, increase your energy, be an example of
health to your kids and live long enough to run around the yard with
your grandkids.
Please remember these important keys to success:
- Take Baby Steps
- Avoid Making Excuses
- STAY POSITIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Be Proud of Yourself when you are done exercising
- HAVE FUN!
Take care ladies,
Jonathan
aka "Your Biggest Fan"
