S.M.A.R.T. Goals, Brick Bodies, and YOU!
6:00 AM
Happy New Year from Brick Bodies! Thinking about what you want to change or achieve during 2016? Goal setting is a great way to ensure that you meet your objectives. Whether your goal is to be able to walk the Father’s Day 5K or beat your previous run time, you want to make sure that you make your goal S.M.A.R.T.!
Specific: The more specific your goal is, the better!
Measurable: Know what you have to do to reach your goal.
Attainable: Don’t set yourself up for failure!
Relevant: Is this goal something you truly want to do? If so, you’re more likely to stick to it.
Time-bound: Deadlines help put ideas into action!
Making S.M.A.R.T. goals increases the likelihood that you’ll stick to the process to achieve your goal over time. Here is an example...
Incorrect: “I’m going to get ready for the Father’s Day 5K by exercising more."
S.M.A.R.T. Goal: “I’m going to get ready for the Father’s Day 5K in June 2016 by following the COMP training program and running three times per week so I will be able to complete the 5K in 45 minutes.”
What S.M.A.R.T. goal will you set for 2016?
