EXECUTIVE HEALTH AND FITNESS

How can we manipulate a busy life to achieve better quality fitness and health? Look at my 3 part series to get the results you want, even with a busy life!

Let me guess- you have set your h&f goals, you set off strongly and within two weeks you feel like you have fallen flat on your face because your work has got in the way in some shape or form? If you’re a work-a-holic, this is all very well for your financial fitness, however without being physically and therefore mentally fit, how will you sustain your keen work ethic and thus bank balance? Quite simply you will burn out much quicker than your fitter counterparts, not what you want? Then keep reading…….

THE ‘POWER OF HOW’.

Let’s face it, most of us face the simple summation of working far too hard. The sum of long hours divided over very long hours = a very tired and worn out you! This is NO good because we often tend to look at life in the short term.

In this day and age, our work/life balance is completely out of whack, we work ultra long hours to rake the cash in, whilst forgetting about ourselves, our health, fitness and quality of life in the long run. We run ourselves into the floor and feel utterly exhausted by the end of the day, leaving no YOU time. I’ve worked with many clients, whereby work is first and looking after themselves comes second- as a PT I know the more you try to preach to these little devils (you- the client) the more they’re (YOU’RE) less-likely to change. If you are a client of a PT does this sound like YOU? You’d better keep reading, if that’s a yes….

In all seriousness, if the latter does sounds like you – don’t worry, it can be rectified but you must act sooner rather than later. For sure! You probably have set your goals properly, but what you probably haven’t done is been smart about exactly how you will go about accomplishing your goals. Whatever you do during your plan of attack DO-NOT underestimate the power of ‘how I will achieve this’, as it forms fundamental part of the equation to success.

Most busy people fail to see the bigger picture, when going about making the effort to make those all important changes to health and fitness. As a result, they don’t think about the power of how &; forget to refer back to their set game plan. WARNING! During stressful times this can lead fatal errors, which can means that unfortunately the efforts made just don’t crack the nut, and the best option seems to be to give up all together?! Shame on you! (only joking!).

If you ever feel like giving up –remind yourself of how happy you are in your current situation, and how much you want to change it. Remember that your health and fitness essentially forms the backbone of our productivity. Whether you’re a full-time mum or high city roller, to be productive, is in essence to become more successful at whatever you do. The stronger your body is, the stronger your mind is, and visa versa. You know that you gotta get back up when you fall, and you gotta make it better next time…..but how?

As a busy person, it is likely that you are also a competitive person to some degree? Right? Well, in terms of your health and fitness it’s time to get off your desk and take a look at what the competitive people (athletes) do within this field and …..copy them! Let’s face it, It makes sense adopt similar protocols as athletes since they tend to be the most successful beings at this game.

Now I’m talking about using techniques used by sports psychologists (no judgment yet!), Adopting the basic principles used by sports psychologists on top athletes leads us forwards in making the equation of health and fitness, plus of course work balance swing in our favour, ultimately allowing us to gain remarkable results. This is what I call the ‘Win –Win’ game plan. We simply use the basic principles which top athletes acquire to gain a win, yet we adapt them for us (the executive) making our fitness bank look much more lucrative in the short & long of it (the other win). This equals success, and we can’t argue with that.

Before we begin to think about the journey toward each goal we must first have a really good think about exactly what it is we want to achieve; NOW PLEASE VISUALISE- this is you in your starting blocks before the gunshot in your 100m sprint. What position would you like to finish? What do you want out of your race? When do you want to cross the line? Notice this is your race, not your friends/family member etc etc, this is about what you want to achieve for YOU! If you can apply this imperative recommendation you will go about your task with much more purpose and you are less likely to trip over/allow the hurdles to hinder you along the way.

My top recommendation is to make goal setting real visual priority for yourself, if that is- you are serious about making those winning changes to your health and fitness. What I imply by this is to write your goals onto something permanent and place it in a common area to you. Somewhere, where you have no choice but to refer back to your ambitions. Did you guess that means pen and paper just won’t cut it? Well………you were right! Throw that paper idea into a ball and out of the window. It won’t work! Write down three of your major goals on a canvas for example, using big bold staring you in the face writing. Hook your master piece on to a blatant area of your office/home – the more you are reminded of it, the more you are likely you will act, inching you further towards your desired outcome. Make sense? Then what are you waiting for? (oh, and if you have any better ideas where you write your goals I would love to here them email me on bodywizeaustralia@gmail.com)

Be really honest with yourself, write how important is it to reach your goals on a scale of 1 to 10?. If you are listing anything less than a score of 9 then maybe you need to consider changing the goals you have written to increase your motivation to achieve your goal. Be specific and know where you are starting on your map. For example ,If your goals concern shape improvement/strength you will need to be assessed to see where exactly you are sitting now on your map, in order to see where you want to stand later.

Thanks for reading so far. Stay tuned for the second in my 3 part series where I will be discussing the specific principles underpinning the ‘power of how’ - you will go about achieving your goals
