5 ways to avoid falling off track & to keep yourself progressing!!

Have you ever experienced this cycle…

1. You feel motivated so you start training and watching your diet.
2. You give it a good go and get to the gym a few times a week for a few weeks.
3. Something happens or a new focus comes along which upsets the routine and without knowing it you’re 3 weeks since you last trained or thought about your meals and you’re back to square one.

Here’s 5 ways you can stop this cycle from swallowing you up…



1. Use a Saturday or a Sunday to have a weekly meeting with yourself - sit down and write out something as simple as, what went well, what didn’t go so well & what are you going to do differently this week to make things run smoother.
2. Stick to a routine that works best for you and try not to compromise on that. Find working out in the morning is good for you because it’s done and out of the way, stopping you from deciding you’re too tired later on? Keep your workout to the morning! Give yourself every chance.
3. Plan your meals in advance, you don’t necessarily have to food prep but having everything in you need and knowing what you’re cooking that night is so much more beneficial. This stops you popping into tesco on the way home when you’re starving and going overboard when you could eat your way through the aisles!
4. Get the support of your family, partner or whoever you live with. Bonus points for getting them onboard with making these changes along side you. You’ll always work better as a team or with someone’s support.
5. Have clear back up plans and rough rules. For example try to not miss sessions earlier on in the week if you’re struggling to fit them in. As the week goes on you’re only more likely to put them off. So always start the week off on the right foot!
