February is a month where winter may seem long, but spring is around the corner. February is a time to look forward to spring and summer goals and get after it! Don’t delay too much longer or you will be playing catch up. Check out what we have going on in February and be inspired!

A New Year Opportunity – 

Within a blink of an eye, the first month of the New Year has come and gone. Have you been sticking to your resolutions? If not, don’t fret! Change doesn’t have to start on January 1st, it can start now! 

We’re here to help you keep your New Year’s resolution. Here are five tips that can keep you on track

  1. Change = Gradual Process

Look at change as a gradual process and it will become clear that ‘anytime’ is an opportune time to start making your goal a reality. Make sure the fitness goals you choose are manageable, that way it doesn’t become overwhelming, and you’ll enjoy what you’re doing.

2. Put it in writing

Write down your fitness goals then list the advantages of completing them. Make copies and post them around the house, place it anywhere you’ll see it. That way when you feel your motivation is slipping you can read it and remember why you started to begin with.

3. Social accountability

Post your challenge on your social media sites with daily updates about your progress as well as any struggles you encounter. This will give you the extra encouragement to continue achieving your goal.

4. Make a schedule and stick to it

Making a schedule will break up your goal into small manageable parts. Sticking to it will help when the motivation isn’t there and your discipline will carry you through lacing up the shoes and working out. 

What Pat’s Gym Offers –
