Aloha! Alright who's ready to get fired up for my next challenge group? It's going to a "Duo" Challenge. So that means you get to partner up with who ever you want to share your fitness and health journey with. It will start September 15, 2014. It is a 60 day challenge group that requires a challenge pack of your choice, which is any Beachbody fitness program, including Shakeology. As your health and fitness coach, I will help you establish your goals, teach you how to create an awesome meal plan, tips on how to prep, give recipes, snack ideas, encourage and motivate you every single day, provide daily posts for you to interact throughout your challenge so you can stay accountable. We all keep each other accountable! This is an awesome way to kick start the Fall Season. You and your partner will have the benefit of motivating one another and holding each other accountable throughout the challenge. What a better way to help keep your drive and your commitment in check? Having that workout partner can double your performance.
Here are the 10 reasons why you should have a fitness buddy:
- Help you achieve your fitness goals: receiving a phone call each two weeks can boost the amount of exercise you do by up to 78% (on average). So having that partner call you up and check on your progress, how much exercise was done in the past week, and if any workouts were missed, emphasizes the importance of getting back on track. So study shows that social support through a phone call or even social networking can boost your motivation considerably.
- Working out becomes fun: the more fun your workouts are the more you are going to look forward to and be committed to them over the long-term. Working out on your own can be lonely, so just having that social contact- being able to laugh, cheer each other on- will make the workout much more enjoyable and exciting.
- Easier to try new workouts: power in numbers! So when you have someone by your side it's less intimidating to take your workout to a local gym and hold a class, or hitting the free weights. Getting a buddy on board will increase your confidence.
- Keep your form on point: having a partner, even if they aren't experts, can help you with your form and give pointers and tips on how to correct any mistakes.
- Competition makes you perform better: study shows that when you're paired up you perform better, especially when you're challenging one another. It maximizes your motivation.
- Motivates and supports you: having someone in your corner makes a significant difference to how motivated you are. The better the workout buddy, the better motivation and support comes along with it. Thus boosting your commitment towards your goals and increasing your confidence in achieving them.
- Keeps your ego in check: having a good workout buddy recognizes that you're proud of your achievements and confident with what you've got, and at the same time keeps you grounded by constantly pushing you to your peak.
- Makes your workouts safer: an accountability partner definitely helps you from getting hurt. They can watch out for you and spot you.
- Brings variety to your workouts: your buddy will have different knowledge and different skills, and vise versa. So both of you will benefit from one another. Variety is one of the key components to fun, so you're more likely to stick with it when you introduce new things in the mix.
- Increases commitment massively: definitely much harder to just quit when you have a partner in crime. When you ditch your workout, you're not only giving up on yourself, but you're also letting your partner down. So having a partner means you have to plan your workouts in advance and meet each others' schedule. Once it's in the books then it much more permanent and the more likely that you will follow through in your workout.
