Did you eat too many Christmas cookies? The UK Government is urging families to walk it off.

Looking to join a gym in 2010? Make sure you get the best deal.

Have a perfect six pack? Trying to get one? Maintaining it may become the real struggle.

Women’s Health Magazine thinks they have the Ultimate Fitness Workout for 2010 – give it a try!

Did you find any articles interesting that you’d like to share?

And now… resolutions — that is such a nasty word isn’t it? I prefer GOALS.

My fitness goals for 2010:

1. Make use of my NEW BIKE! Ride at least 4 times a week when the weather is nice.

2. Keep up with my kettlebell routine, doing it at least twice a week.

3. Increase to 15 pound dumbbells for my arm exercises (currently on 10 – next step is 12! then 15!)

4. Give Yoga a try – Take at least two classes (in studio) a month and practice twice a week from home.

They may sound simple, but i think they are JUST PERFECT — challenging, but not unrealistic. And notice how I’m not focusing on weight or “fitting in to a pair of skinny jeans.” These goals should be about fitness! About making your body strong and helping you feel good — the rest will follow, I promise. Like I say, it’s all about your perspective.

What are your fitness goals for 2010?

Don't let this guy scare you - we can do it!

  1. I think your goals are perfect! Especially increasing your weights. :)

  2. Great goals! Achiveable but productive. I always call them goals instead of resolutions, I feel as if resolutions just set you up to fail. :) I am posting mine on New Year’s Day…they need some tweaking.

  3. Definitely great goals…realistic and doable. Can’t wait to hear about the progress!

    Great Resolutions! Yoga is on my list–along with paying more attention to my body when it comes to balancing exercise and eating to fuel it.
