PSA - it's not too late to start your New Year resolutions:
, agrees that this is the best way to manage your January training. “Just returning back to work and back to setting an alarm clock can be enough of a shock to handle without throwing in extra time at the gym or extra time in the kitchen,” says Fildes. “If you weren’t doing it before Christmas, I don’t think the first week of January is the time to start.” The added benefit is that slow and steady really does win the race.
From a psychological point of view, giving yourself that extra time to adjust means you’re more likely to stick at it. “I think the failure rate is completely correlated to the realism behind the goal. Often, in my experience with clients, they haven’t thought through their goals. They try to take on too much straight from the get-go. They know what they don’t like about their lifestyle, and so start doing the polar opposite.
I often find myself feeling like I’m not doing enough with the constant bombardment of January goals and the ‘start now or forever hold your peace’ conversations begin. But now that I’ve built my routine up and smashed my first proper workout of a new plan, I’m reminded that this understanding of my body is the best approach for my mental and physical health. If you didn’t set a resolution and think it’s too late: it’s not. If you started gung-ho and are already knackered: slow it down.
