The Holiday Season is Upon Us....Uh Oh!

The Holiday Season is now upon us.  Are you ready? For all of it?

What a great time of year to spend with family and friends!  To be social, and have fun reminiscing about past memories, and creating new ones!  But it is not all rainbows and sprinkles is it?

The stress and the work of it all.  The anxiety levels raise high, and we do it to ourselves. 

So why is it the first thing we let fall to the wayside is our fitness regimen.  Our workouts, all of a sudden we are way too busy to make it to that class, or that gym.  Our diet, starts to hit the fan from Thanksgiving Eve to New Years.  I mean come on. Why would we get back on the wagon, only to fall off next week, or the week after?  Let's just keep rolling till January.  Let's just add the 10-15 lb weight gain that becomes "average" among most individuals during this time period.

STOP THE CYCLE!  We must! (laughing as I type this, but it is true!) 

So many of us fall into the abyss of the holidays, only to start off the new year with added regret and added body fat!

So do yourself a favor, DON'T FALL INTO THE ABYSS!  (Use that as your daily motivator)

Move..go to that class, find a good home routine to start.  Use a DVD as inspiration!  Make sure your back up piece of equipment at home, whether it be an elliptical, treadmill, or bike, is in good working condition.  If not, take the time to make that stop into Fit Equipment Etc. to purchase something that will help you achieve your goals! Every day is a new beginning! So make sure to stay motivated and positive.  If you fall, it is OK, you are not a failure!  Just pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and hit it hard again the next day.  Just don't fall down and never get up!

We are here for you! So now..there are NO EXCUSES!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING, AND ENJOY YOUR HOLIDAY SEASON!
