Craig Markham started playing competitive baseball, hockey and judo from a young age. He’s kept the routine for much of his life, in part thanks to his career and desire to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Like Markham, there are many other people who have turned early childhood exercise experiences into a lifetime of fitness. However, there is an even greater number that would like to turn New Year’s fitness goals into a life of good health.

For many of the people in the latter category, the problem isn’t achieving the goals, it’s maintaining the achievements. Indeed, people who achieve short-term goals don’t always get it right when it comes to making the behavioral changes needed to make the achievements stick.

Getting people to view the accomplishments as long-term starts by being mentally and emotionally prepared to work long-term. Sure, accomplishing your goal of dropping a couple of pounds every month is good, but it becomes even better when your mindset is prepared to make the fitness routine an everyday thing.

What makes professional athletes successful is that they have an infrastructure designed for their long-term success: trainers and coaches, fixed training times, and a set approach to their diets. All that’s left for them is to go out and perform.

The vast majority of individuals, on the other hand, don’t have similar advantages. You’re probably competing with other priorities, so it’s easy for regular fitness to get lost in the routine. At some point, you either make exercise a top priority or you merge it with something else that’s a top priority. It’s up to you to hold yourself accountable.

Competency

Just as in life, being competent is important to long-term success. Often, people feel they know their jobs well or are competent parents, but don’t feel quite as capable in fitness matters. Becoming competent starts by identifying what you may have done in the past that helped bring about positive health changes. From there, you know what’s worked before, so you can add to that with a few more tips and routines.
