Sticking to Your New Year’s Resolutions
2018 is just around the corner, and the majority of Americans are thinking about goals they’d like to achieve in the new year. Weight loss, dieting, and other self-improvement goals are the most common, but New Year’s resolutions are notorious for crashing and burning by February. In this blog post, we’ll give you a few tips that will help you to both keep and achieve your goals in 2018. Contact Midtown Trainers today if you’re thinking about setting a weight loss goal or would like to invest in personal training in Atlanta! Our professional and caring staff is here for you, whatever you goals for the new year might be.
Start Small
It might sound counterintuitive, but the easiest changes to make are the ones that don’t require much change at all. If you’re trying to cook at home instead of going out to eat, try staying at home to cook just one or two times more each week than usual. You can always work your way up to more days each week, but you can set yourself up for success by maintaining your routine and making small, incremental changes.
Go Easy on Yourself
Birthdays, treats at the office, and happy hour can all start to seem like your enemies when you’re trying to lose weight or clean up your diet. Many people become discouraged and feel like failures when they break their routines by having a slice of cake or by going out for drinks rather than going to the gym.
Perfection is unattainable, and studies have regularly shown that viewing your goals in an all-or-nothing way is incredibly counterproductive. Rather than viewing a cheat day as a complete failure and giving up on your goals, visualize the big picture and think about all of the successful days that you’ve had. Taking a step back and viewing your progress as a long-term trend will show you that small missteps are nothing to worry about.
Track Your Progress
Most people tend to view their progress in a very narrow way; take weight loss as an example. We see ourselves in the mirror each and every day, which makes it difficult to visualize weight loss. We become accustomed to how we look in the present moment, and it can be hard to visualize where we started from.
You don’t have to work on your weight loss or fitness goals on your own. Midtown Trainers has helped hundreds of men and women in Atlanta with their personal goals, and we hope that we can help you with yours in the new year. We’re currently offering a free jumpstart session, which includes a one-on-one personal training session with one of our expert personal trainers. Contact us today and set yourself up for success in 2018.
Personal Training for a Busy Life
When you’re a busy woman here in Atlanta, it can be tough to find the right workout for you. Maybe you tried a class but didn’t feel like you got the individual attention you needed to achieve your fitness goals. Maybe you tried one of those national chains that made you feel like nobody knew who you were or why you were there. The fact is, you know what you want to get done, you just need someone that can help you get there. There’s good news though, Midtown Trainers is here for you.
Whether you’re looking for instruction on the best exercises to meet your goals or you just want a little extra motivation to push yourself further, we have the trainers for you. Our Executive Personal Trainers are fitness experts that only want to help you. They curate workouts specifically for you and your needs.

An Executive Personal Trainer can even help with nutrition and diet plans to instill healthy eating habits if you’re having trouble kicking the dreaded sugar demon off your back.
