    Directors DeskCardio, Toning, Fit ball, Boxing, Stretch n Flex Rubberisedresistance and Boot Camp these are all the trainingprograms that every Step into Life Franchise has to offer.

    Did you know that your trainer has over 300 group personaltraining programs at his/her disposal to train you with? Thekey to success with a fitness program is variety. Your bodygets used to what you do and adapts very quickly so it isimportant to trick the body into expending energy andgaining fitness via variety.

    This brings me to the time of year. Can you believe it isDecember already? The year has really flown by. At this timeof year, we all seem to fall into old rituals and habits. Eatinghabits, mental habits and lack of exercise because we are to

    busy habits!

    As the year comes to a close, I want you to try and trick yourbody out of some of the same habits. Some tips for varietythis Christmas.

    Tips:-1. Get your shopping done early so you are not stressed

    and hence dont miss training.2. Plan a different Christams day and boxing- day,

    perhaps an active one.3. Different training try a boxing class which is great

    upper body cardio or try a toning class your abdominalswill appreciate it!

    From all of us at Step into Life we wish you and your familileseverything of the best for Christmas and the New Year.RegardsLarry CohenDirector

    Health & Fitness Article

    Staying MotivatedOne way to stay motivated is to constantly remind yourself that a worth-while pay-off lies ahead; a new, healthy, strong you isemerging. Effective, consistent exercise will not only improve your overall health and fitness, but will also improve your appearance,energy level, and social interactions. Also, look forward to the many psychological benefits as well: confidence, self-esteem, and relieffrom depression, anxiety and stress.If you are serious about your health and well-being, you will take action and begin an exercise program, and you will benefit in allthese ways. Once you see the results, you will become even more motivated. Action creates motivation!

    Set GoalsGoal-setting is another great way of staying motivated. Goals focus your workout program and clarify what you are trying to achieve.As you attain each goal, you gain encouragement and further motivation. Here is how to achieve the goals you set and obtain theresults you deserve.

    1. Make sure your goals are measurable:A vague goal, such as "I want to be fit," gives you nothing to shoot for. Decide when andwhat you are going to achieve, such as "I want to lose 2 percent of my body fat by August 1st."

    2. Be realistic: Make sure your goals are attainable. If you set your expectations too high, you will get frustrated and will be morelikely to quit. Make sure, however, that your goals are not too easy; they should be challenging. When you achieve a challenging goal,your pride and satisfaction will create more motivation.

    3. Set short-term goals as stepping stones to your "ultimate" (long-term) goals: If your long-term goal is to run a marathon inone year, then set short-term weekly or monthly goals of the distance you will need to cover to achieve your long term goal--develop aplan. It is a lot easier to accomplish a goal one day or week at a time, such as increasing 1km a week, than it is to think that you needto increase your distance by 20 kms.

    Make It FunAnother way of assuring that you stay motivated is to make exercise fun. If you perceive your workout as a chore, you more than likely

    will not stick with it. Here are some techniques for making your workout something to look forward to.

    1. Add Variety: If your running is getting tedious and boring, change one of these factors:

    Vary how often you do an endurance run and the time spent in each session. Find an alternate exercise; for example, if you always do running on the roads, mix it up and train on the grass/beach/lake or

    mix in some cross training classes.

    2. Include Friends and Family: Training with a group not only makes your training session more fun, safe, and intense, but will alsoincrease the likelihood of your showing up at training. Make sure you pick a partner whose goals and interests are similar to yours andwho is willing to spot you correctly and motivate you to do your best.

    3. Fight Discouragement:If once in a long while you blow off a workout because you choose to go out with friends, just accept andenjoy your choice--do not feel guilty. Otherwise, the sense of failure can make it harder to get yourself back on track. Focus on howmuch progress you have made so far, not on how far you have to go.

    4. Expect and Prepare for Plateaus: If you feel you have reached a plateau and/or are bored, do not give up--this is a natural part ofworking out. Make sure to vary the exercises, sets, repetitions and order of your workout--continually search for new ways of makingyour routine fun and exciting. Talk to your trainer about this!!

    5. Schedule your Workout:If you always exercise on the same days at the same time, your routine will become a fixture in your life,not a whim. Including exercise into your busy schedule will be an adjustment, and staying motivated will be equally challenging.Change is difficult for many people. However, if you have the willingness to work through the initial emotional discomfort as you movestep by step through a safe and effective program, you will find the confidence, commitment and determination that will ease the way.When you begin achieving great results, the excitement and fun you experience will make the change well worth the effort. Actioncreates motivation! Good luck: I hope you enjoy all the wonderful benefits of a healthy, active lifestyle.
