Sample Weight Loss Motivators from W.I.T.S. Fitness

You’ve found this blog because you’re actively looking for information on fitness and living a healthy lifestyle. Kudos! You’ve taken one, perhaps many, steps in the right direction. Exercising isn’t just about loosing weight. It’s about being healthy. All of us here at W.I.T.S. Fitness take that very seriously. It’s not only our job, but our mission to help you be as healthy as you can be.

Question of the Day
So that begs the question: What are your weight loss motivators? Maybe your doctor told you to start exercising to reduce cholesterol. Whatever your reason, you need to be realistic by setting achievable goals.

We are not here to tell you what to do or judge. We’re here because we can help you. You might find that you’ll be more successful by changing your motivation—why you’re exercising.

Truth
Weight loss is a great motivator, but it seems that it might actually do more harm than good. How? Well, just because you loose weight doesn’t mean it will stay off. It’s easy to fall off the wagon and put the pounds back on again. So changing what motivates you may actually help by making your goal more achievable.

Sample Motivators
The W.I.T.S. Fitness certification program teaches future personal trainers not only about exercise techniques, but also healthy habits to pass on to their clients. Keyword is healthy. Your motivation needs to be centered around that word. Try some of these weight loss motivators out for a month and report your progress back to us as comments.

• I want to improve flexibility so I can play with my kids without aching afterwards
• My motivation is to be heart healthy (including exercise and healthy eating)
• I want to prevent diabetes
• I would like to decrease my chances of getting colon cancer
• I want to live a well balanced life

These of course are only examples. But taking the pressure of weight loss may help you refocus and keep those pounds off without even realizing you’re doing it.

Getting Fit for Summer: Tips from W.I.T.S. Fitness

Many of us are stepping it up right about now, trying to get to reach our goals to look nice and trim on the beach. So how does W.I.T.S. Fitness recommend you get fit for summer? By teaching you fun exercises.

Swimming
It’s hot and the water feels so good after a productive day at work. Take advantage of the season and start swimming. Do several laps around the pool using different strokes. Swimming is an excellent way to combine cardio and strength training. So the more you do, the better. Try leg lifts, squats, marching in place, and others. You can even try using weights for your arms with curls and arm lifts.

Walk in the Park
Since it is so nice outside, go for a walk. Whether it’s walking the dog or a stroll with a loved one, a walk anytime is a good idea. Make sure you bring a water bottle to stay hydrated. Challenge yourself to get fit for summer by doing a little more. Walk one mile and then progress to more. Change it up and walk in different parks. A different terrain will help build muscle by preventing your body from getting used to the same movements.

Mouthwatering Fruits
Watermelon, cantaloupe, strawberries, and more! Not only are fruits delicious, but they’re fun to eat—a cool, refreshing treat. Make sure to get your two servings of this food group. There is no need for sweet deserts when you can have a tasty serving of watermelon or strawberries.

W.I.T.S. Fitness Dedication
Being healthy and getting fit requires hard work and dedication. Visit W.I.T.S. Fitness for links to help you meet your goals this summer.

You also need to be people friendly. A good attitude when working with clients is necessary. You’ll face resistance and all types of personalities. Your W.I.T.S personal training instructor will give you some tips, but it has to come naturally as well.

Determination- you have to be determined to succeed. Not only do you have to pass our exam, but you will always be tested by your clients and boss.
