It’s time for the March Fitness Calendar!
True confession time: I slacked off a bit in February so I personally am excited about a shiny new fitness calendar and a totally clean slate. I’m going to set some new goals this month - won’t you join me? Use my printable exercise & fitness tracker to help you set AND achieve your health and fitness goals this month.
1. Set your goals.
- What are your goals for the month? Think realistic and achievable - you want to succeed!
- What is your motivation? An upcoming special event? Vacation? To improve your overall health?
- How will you reward yourself? This is the fun part! If you walk five times per week this month will you treat yourself to a massage? If you eat six servings of fruits and veggies each day will you purchase a new pair of running shorts? Celebrate your achievements.
2. Plan your workouts.
- Use the spaces on the calendar to plan your workouts in advance. Some people are fitness free spirits, but most of us benefit from a little structure. I like to what my workout will be before I change into my exercise gear!
- Give yourself a gold star when the workout is completed. Use actual stickers or just draw a star or a smiley face. The point is to show mission accomplished.
- Jot down little notes. I like to note my energy level, rate my workout, and if I experience any unusual aches and pains.
3. Keep your calendar in plain sight!
I can’t emphasize this enough - make sure you see your calendar every single day. Out of sight is literally out of mind. I cannot tell you how many times I have made grand resolutions, wrote a well-thought-out plan and then somehow forgot all about it. What??
If you are making the effort to set goals, please keep your goals and your motivation in front of you at all times. See Keep Your Goals in Plain Sight for some ideas.
Be sure to share this calendar if you have friends who would like to set and achieve goals of their own this month. And I would absolutely love your feedback on the calendar. Is there anything else you would like to see?
