Variety is Key

One key factor in fitness success is you ability to exercise consistently. This is not to say that you should always do the same exercise all the time. But that you should exercise consistently and that the exercise you do can vary. Run one day, lift the next. Circuit training on Monday and then Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) the Wednesday. The variety will greatly help reduce the odds of your getting bored and quit exercising.

Christmas Dinner

Some people may fret over what sort of junk food they will eat during the holidays such as christmas dinner. One meal will not totally destroy your diet. The body for life program even encourages cheat days in which you are expected to eat more than expected and in less than healthy sorts of food. Think of the Christmas Dinner as a cheat day. Your body is amazing and will increase metabolism if it deems necessary so as to burn off any extra calories you eat.



If you want to decrease any guilt you may have then go out for a run or do a few pull ups. I like pulls ups for keeping the body active. The one I have at home in my bedroom doorway is the perfect pullup

That thing is to change your routine. The change can be accomplished in a number of ways. Speed, amount of weight, number of sets, number of repititions, etc.

When thinking of resolution goals for the coming year alswo think of how you will do things differently. This will increase your chances of reachig your goals.

Stay active

I noticed over the years that the points in time in which I felt little aches, pains and stiffness was related to the time off I took frm exercise. The more jiu-jitsu I did the better my back felt. The more I ran the higher my level of energy.

Always stay active. An easy way to accomplish this is to exercise at home. This is the most cost and time effecient way to stay in shape.
