Words That Move You . . .
"Goals can be elusive which makes the difficult journey all the more rewarding."
— Alberto Salazar, three-time winner of NYC Marathon, Boston Marathon winner, running coach
Need more motivation? Check out all of my words that move you.
Speak Up: What's Your Proudest Moment?
Recently when I was writing about Matt Damon and his triathlon, I reminisced about my own completion of a triathlon — though I did the whole thing on my own! I'm very proud of a lot of my fitness accomplishments, the triathlon being among my proudest moments, but I would have to say that my favorite achievement was just simply becoming a runner.
Years ago, I refused to run.
Get Motivated: Reevaluate Your Goals
Bikini season is right around the corner. That's good if you've been dedicated to getting fit, or bad if you've let the cold weather get the best of you. If you fall into the category of the latter then it's time to get back on track.
Words That Move You...
Sometimes all it takes is a few good words to get you moving...
“The tragedy of life doesn’t lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goal to reach.”
-- Benjamin E.
Speak Up: What's Your Goal?
We all have different reasons for exercising and eating right, which means we all have different goals in mind as well.
I am curious what your personal goal is. It doesn't have to be big - maybe just to fit into a size six.
Health Tip: Smaller More Specific Goals
I am a goal oriented person, but I just read that ambiguous goals are less motivating since they seem harder to attain. Allison Chopra, a fitness expert at Indiana University, believes goals like "losing weight" or "feeling better" are too amorphous to measure on a daily or weekly basis so they don't help you stay focused. It is always helpful to remember that weight loss takes time since dropping 1 to 2 pounds a week is considered safe, doable and maintainable.
Life Coach in a Box
It seems like they are putting everything in a box these days. From water to Justin Timberlake's genitalia, you name it, they are boxing it up.
It was only a matter of time before they but a Life Coach in a Box ($14.50).
Actually Stick To It This Year!
Despite your new year's resolution to get fit, have you already skipped a few days at the gym? You're not alone.
Maybe you just need to be more conscious of what it really takes to internalize and make a change in your habits.
Good Goals are Good
Fit Sugar is truly impressed with the new cross-training Lance Armstrong. He wanted to run the NYC Marathon in under 3 hours and he did it! At the finish line, however, he admitted it was harder than anticipated and although he did some training he was surprised by how difficult it was.

Speak Up: What's Your Fall Fitness Goal?
Now that it's officially Fall, students are back in school, and the warmer air is being replaced with a crisp breeze. The changing of the seasons often inspires healthy changes and fitness goals. I am wondering if you've signed up for a race, just bought a bike and are training for a century ride, or maybe your goal is to start exercising more after chilling out all Summer.
