Working towards your goal
19/05/2009 by admin.
Now you have your goal (see previous post), you need to plan how you are going to achieve it. It might help to break it down into smaller pieces (milestones). Also plan progress checks to ensure that you are on schedule to achieve your goal.
If you fall behind schedule perhaps through illness then it would be wise to readjust your goal to ensure that you stay motivated. Likewise, if you achieve your goal early, you can always set another one.
“Goals are dreams with deadlines”
17/05/2009 by admin.
The above is a quote from Diana Scharf Hunt.
I wouldn’t describe goals as ‘dreams’ as dreams don’t always happen in real life. I would prefer to say that “goals are achievable targets with deadlines”. A goal should stretch your abilities to give you the motivation to improve.
Have a think about why you want to change your lifestyle through better nutrition and a fitness routine. Perhaps you want to run 3km or want to lose 2 stone in weight or have the energy to get up a flight of stairs without stopping half way up for breath. May be you want to bring your cholesterol level down or reduce your blood pressure.
Whatever your goal, write it down and give yourself a sensible deadline of when you are going to achieve it.
Next you need a plan of how you are going to achieve your goal.

Good luck to those doing the moon walk and the Race for Life this weekend. I hope you raise lots of money for the charities.
Beans are best
15/05/2009 by admin.
Why not have a meat free day and opt for some tasty beans which are packed with protein as well as vitamins and minerals?
Beans are rich in soluble fiber and low in fat and cholesterol. Add them to a salad, soup or have with some cous cous or pasta, which should leave you feeling satisfied for hours. Black beans are found to be the best, particularly as they are packed with antioxidants which fight the ageing process and that has to be a plus.
Saturday’s Boot Camp

Hi Folks
This Saturday we will be at Fort Richmond at 10 am. Remember to dress for the weather and bring some drink with you.
If it is sunny, don’t forget your factor 30.
Last night’s boot camp
13/05/2009 by admin.
Well done to last night boot camp participants who turned up despite blustery winds. We had a really good session. Some commented that it was the hardest workout they had done.
There might be some sore legs today (oops).
Tonight’s Boot Camp
12/05/2009 by admin.
Hey Folks, don’t forget boot camp tonight will be at Jerbourg Point at 6 pm. Make sure you dress for the weather and bring some drink with you. If you have a watch (pref. stop watch) that would be good too but don’t worry if not.
Might also be wise to bring gloves. Bring some spare dry clothes with you too.
