Nourish your body with food
A balanced and healthy diet has numerous benefits beyond improving physical appearance. In addition to nourishing the soul, consuming nutritious foods has been shown to enhance cognitive function. If you want to achieve your fitness goals, remember that diet plays a crucial role, accounting for up to 80% of your success. To make progress more quickly, consider researching or consulting with a nutrition expert. Whilst you will spend the majority of your time eating healthy, it is completely fine to have treats and rewards. It's all about balance if your looking to glow up.
Get those walking shoes on
Make an effort to be active every day this month. Just 10 minutes of walking per day can provide numerous health benefits. With YouTube, you can find workout videos suitable for any fitness level, so there are plenty of options even if you don't feel comfortable going to the gym. Exercise can also serve as self-care, providing an hour each day to focus on yourself and potentially improving your mental well-being. These activities can help you combat feelings of sadness or gloom that can sometimes occur during the month of January.
Sleep, sleep, sleep
Maintaining a healthy sleep schedule can greatly improve your overall well-being and fitness. Adequate sleep can increase energy levels, improve concentration, and allow your body to recover more quickly after exercise, helping you reach your fitness goals more efficiently. The amount of sleep that is optimal for an individual can vary, so it is important to find what works best for you. If you struggle with falling asleep, try turning off all technology at least an hour before bedtime, using a sleep spray with calming scents like chamomile or lavender, and reading a book as a relaxing pre-sleep activity.
Set goals and stay motivated
Setting goals can be easy. Staying motivated and sticking to them can be tricky. Glow up January isn't just about your body. Here are a few tips to help you stay motivated when setting goals:
Set specific and achievable goals: When your goals are clear and realistic, it is easier to stay motivated and work towards them.
Make a plan: Create a roadmap for how you will achieve your goals. This will help you stay organised and on track.
Celebrate small wins: Don't wait until you've reached your final goal to celebrate. Celebrate small wins along the way to keep your motivation up.
Find an accountability partner: Share your goals with someone you trust, and ask them to hold you accountable. This can help you stay focused and motivated.
Reflect on your progress: Take time to reflect on your progress and the progress you have made towards your goals. This will help you see how far you have come and keep you motivated to continue.
Stay positive: Try to focus on the positive aspects of your goals and the progress you have made, rather than dwelling on any setbacks or challenges.
Keep things in perspective: Remember that achieving your goals will take time and effort. Don't get discouraged if you don't see immediate progress – keep working towards your goals and you will get there.
