Aligned, Not Rushed: Creating a Fitness Journey That is Sustainable
 

When it comes to your ‘dream body’, you probably have a good idea of what that is/how it looks.

But…if you woke up tomorrow with that body, would you know how to achieve it? And even more, would you know how to MAINTAIN it??

I’m betting the answer is NO, because most of the time, you have no clue where you’re going on your fitness journey! It’s not your fault either, because there is sooo much confusion surrounding health and fitness in our world today.

It’s vital that you get super clear on YOUR specific body goals, and understand what route will get you there. It’s totally okay to take more of a ‘scenic route’ on your fitness journey - you want the path you take to be enjoyable AND sustainable.

It’s not going to be very fun to arrive at your ‘goal body’, but not be able to maintain it for more than a couple of days, ya know?!

I hope this short & spicy episode encourages you with creating a fitness journey that is sustainable for YOU. Long-term success with your fitness is TOTALLY possible!!

Episode Recap:

  • The confusion that comes with your ‘dream’ body & not understanding how to get or maintain it
  • Why you need to know *exactly* where you’re going on your fitness journey
  • Understanding that you ARE capable and you just need the *right* path to help you achieve & sustain your fitness goals
