GOAL SETTING OVERVIEW

ts a great idea to split up your goals into a couple of categories, these are individual to you, and mean that you always have something to measure back against. 

Splitting these up into exercise/gym goals, aesthetic goals, and performance goals (which was something I overlooked when making the video) is a great idea.

And before we look at some examples of those, its important that we get specific. 

What, exactly, is it that you want to achieve? Be as detailed as possible. 

Here’s an example of generic, vague goals, and how we can make them more specific: 

Exercise goals: 

Start walking

Go the gym

Aesthetic goals: 

Lose weight 

Performance goals: 

Get stronger

Those are all fine, but they’re a little vague and general. 

A good exercise to follow is to have a metric in mind, and have a previous metric to beat, and a reason why that goal is there. 

Here’s those examples again, but with some more specific answers: 

Exercise goals: 

Start walking before and after work, doing more than 6,000 steps, as my previous average was 3,500

Go the gym, twice per week, and where my schedule allows 3 times per week.

Aesthetic goals: 

Lose weight, overall by 10 kilos, but first concentrate on losing 1 kilo, as I used to be 10 kilos lighter and felt better about myself

Performance goals: 

Get stronger, in the main exercises, cause being strong helps me feel confident, and gives me something to aim for. 

You can see by these how making them a little more specific, and including a reason in there can make it a much more powerful tool! 

Sit down and write out your goals, ones that are specific to you, and if you’re struggling to figure them out, then please feel free to reach out and shoot us a message on the app
