2009 is the Year of Your Health and Wealth - Anytime Fitness a Santa Rosa Gym

A New Year’s resolution is a great way to get ready for the new year to lose weight or gain muscle, but the key is finding the right program at a Santa Rosa gym or health club for you and your body that will greatly increase your chances of reaching that challenging goal. Key weight loss and muscle gaining strategies include eating less fat, keeping a food journal, taking 10,000 steps per day, and finding a support system that will help you stay focused.



Now is the time to evaluate your 2008 season to take a look at your training and determine what worked and what didn’t. Having a training log will help you see your fitness progression throughout the year. Do you need to improve your speed, endurance, strength, mental focus, recovery, weight loss, upper body and core strength, nutrition, hydration, flexibility, and race preparation? It is also helpful to take a look at all areas of your personal and professional life, because problems in those areas will be a detriment to your exercise regime. Evaluate your past years and make 2009 your year of success.

While “Health and Fitness” resolutions are expected to decline in 2009, it is still the most popular category. The number one resolution, “To Lose Weight,” remains unchanged in popularity year after year. Most people who indicate that they would like to lose weight are only seeking to lose about 10 pounds. While others are also looking to gain muscle. A Santa Rosa gym that can help you focus on both will allow you to attain the results you are looking for.

Instead of dwelling on what you may not have done last year, put in some extra effort this month to find ways to make SURE that you are making the time and resources available to yourself that you need to stay in shape for the coming year in 2009!
