Good morning ~Contact.FirstName~,
January in the fitness industry is always regarded as the busiest month of the year.
After anything from 1-5 weeks of Christmas 'treats' people feel ready to change for the better.
There's plenty of funny memes about of gyms in December vs January, there were a couple of classes at FBL last week which looked similar! 😀
But it's good.
It's good that people are making positive changes and looking ahead.
Sorry to be negative but a lot of people do fail with these goals or new habits.
Often in the first 1-8 weeks too.
Why is that?
Well if we take going to the gym/exercising as our example
Is it not knowing what to do?
There could be an element of this, but even if you went to the gym and didn't know what to do other than use the treadmill/bike then going on there for 30 mins 3 x a week is still great and a positive change.
It's the Accountability
Who is holding you accountable to reach your goal?
Who checks in with you at the end of every week to make sure you are still on track?
It's a simple but ridiculously powerful thing accountability.
Obviously if you follow what we do then accountability is at the forefront of our business and our great results.
It's so hard to do it on your own.
We are actually closed to new members for January now, we are completely full (more places will be released in February).
So for now we won't be able to help you be accountable but there's options to do this yourself.
Find an accountability partner.
It's great if they've got the same goal as you so you can support each other but it doesn't have to be.
They could be a partner/friend/colleague/family member.
Their job is to check in with you that you're doing what you're supposed to do.
(or you check in with them)
So say your goal is 3 sessions a week at the gym then every time you go/at the end of the week send them:
'Gym session done ✅'
It's simple but effective.
If you get to the end of the week and you haven't been, when they check in with you, you'll feel not only like you've let yourself down (easy) but that you've let them down as well (harder).
So have a think today about what your goal is (if yo haven't set it) and who will be your accountability partner.
We are stronger together.
Have a great day,
Jamie
