Waiting till New Year's May Be Too Late
December is a great time to start your New Year’s resolutions. In some instances January 1st is not a great time to begin working on your fitness and weight loss goals. Resolutions are already stressful; adding budget strains and fatigue from holiday celebrations and shopping can make sticking to your resolutions even harder. To start, join a gym or hire a personal trainer. Personal trainers are notoriously busy during January and their calendars fill up quickly. During slow periods like December, personal trainers may be more willing to spend additional time with you to help you accelerate your weight loss success. Also, fitness centers are less crowded now. Therefore, you will be able to workout on the machine of your choice without waiting and the group aerobics class sizes will be smaller. Perhaps the biggest benefit is the cost of personal training session before holidays. Many personal trainers offer their biggest special offers of the year before the holidays.This is perfect for a beginner or for someone who has not been to the gym in awhile. Also, jump-starting your fitness goals now will help prevent dreaded holiday weight gain. In fact, by January you could be 3-5 pounds lighter and smaller around the waist. It is much better to get started now than starting from scratch. You will have already created momentum to propel you past the 3 month time average where most people fall off the resolution wagon.
