Let's start with a four letter word- goal.

I don't know about the rest of you, but visual goals are the best way for me to make a change. I also love lists and getting to cross things off of those lists (nerd alert). That's why I've designed the following page to help me keep track of exactly what I have accomplished and what I still need to do to finish my fitness goals for the month.

This printable is meant to be a checklist of classes and fitness goals I want to accomplish over a month. During October I want to run 20 miles, do 4 yoga classes, 2 pilates classes, 3 spin classes and have 4 my choice hours where I can go slackline in the park or borrow my boyfriends dog and take him to the park to run around. 

I'll print this out and put it in my planner. My planner is my life line to saneness with all the craziness of life. If this printable is right there in my October calendar page I'll see it often and remember to make it to spin class so I can check off one of the triangles. 

The point is, you can do this too! Goals are an absolute must and we've all heard the line that you have to write your goals down if you want them to go anywhere. Use mine or make your own. It doesn't have to be fancy. A piece of paper and a pen is enough to make this happen. Just determine how much you can accomplish within a month and start there. If you don't have a gym membership, look into one or get creative. There are online videos and at home fitness programs you can use. Or maybe you just want to walk two miles five days a week. Just write it down! Make a chart and have fun checking off your accomplishments. Don't forget to reward yourself (just not with food, you're not a dog!).
