So when you’ve written down the way you wanna really feel in January, we’ll transfer all the way down to the following one. And this one’s vital. That is your train plan. I discover that it’s actually useful to have an train plan in place in order that we now have an outlined program that we will progress by as we go. And what’s good about having an train plan is that it’s actually an motion plan. After which quite a lot of our different targets type of fall into place round this focus in our lives. So possibly you have already got an train plan in thoughts for January, and in that case, I would like you to write down that down. We’ve in Rock Your Life so many alternative thrilling challenges and among the, the names of them are actually enjoyable and inspirational.
(04:47)
So one of many sheets on this doc I’ve given you is a listing of the entire completely different Rock Your Life challenges that we now have as of the top of 2024. And I’ve them listed in accordance with how lengthy they’re. So we now have challenges which can be 15 to twenty minutes, 20 to 25 minutes, 20 to half-hour, 25 to 35, 30 to 40, 45, plus all of those completely different timeframes as a result of we all know that when folks decide to a program that’s throughout the timeframe that they’ll attain, then they’re profitable and so they’re constant.

(05:40)
Now, the following one down is our consuming focus. And this one’s actually vital as you already know. And naturally, train and vitamin do go hand in hand as a result of we don’t actually see the outcomes of our exercises if we’re not consuming sufficient meals for our wants. If we’re not sufficient protein for our tissue restore, if we’re not consuming sufficient carbs for our power ranges, if we’re not consuming sufficient wholesome fats to assist issues like absorbing our fats soluble nutritional vitamins, our mind well being producing hormones, there’s so many want wants that our physique has for these key vitamins. And we wanna make it possible for we’re simply being conscious of consuming them in our entire meals as we go. So I gave you, a column in certainly one of your worksheets of inspirational concepts to your wholesome consuming targets. And I discover that typically in January what occurs is we get a bit of bit overwhelmed by making an attempt to pile too many concepts on prime of ourselves and making an attempt to do an excessive amount of.
(06:36)
And it is a factor that occurs all year long the place we type of fall off observe as a result of we’ve possibly overcommitted and, and we get discouraged. And so I don’t need you to really feel like it’s important to decide like seven completely different wholesome consuming targets in January. I would like you to choose a pair, possibly one or two most important ones as a result of what’s going to occur is that you simply’re naturally centered on these targets.

And that’s gonna be actually useful as a result of we’re stacking these habits and we don’t even discover that there are issues we now have to work at anymore as soon as they grow to be a part of our regular routine. So simply decide one or two. So I’ll share a pair that I placed on the column in your worksheet.
(07:20)
One is consuming slowly and mindfully. And this won’t sound like an enormous deal, however truly if we chew our meals extra mindfully, if we sit and revel in our meal versus like being distracted once we’re consuming, it’s truly higher for our nutrient absorption and our digestive course of if we’re chewing extra successfully and extra typically, that digestion truly begins in our mouth with a few of these, enzymes in our mouth and the salivary amylase for instance. And it’s vital to be in that calmer state once we’re consuming. In order that’s only one that I personally actually like for January as a result of you already know, that’s one thing that I’m centered on. Right here’s some extra of the, those not snacking mindlessly. This is likely to be on the highest of your thoughts. For instance, for those who had quite a lot of vacation meals in December, possibly you’re pondering, okay, I’m not gonna snack my, you already know, simply write down a pair, two issues, most likely max right here to your consuming focus for January.
(08:20)
And naturally you’ll be able to take inspiration from and do as many as you need. However once more, keep in mind it’s all or one thing. That’s what will get us to the top. And I don’t wanna overwhelm our most important character with too many issues. She’s already, that is health and well being are only one side of her life. She’s a posh lady right here. We wanna simply set her up with some easy issues that she will deal with, like an train plan, one or two focuses for her wholesome consuming, how she’s gonna really feel. After which this final one here’s a bonus aim. And all of us have these like bonus targets round our well being, I feel type of by default. However I’d such as you to essentially, you already know, simply write it down for January. You would possibly wanna be occupied with strolling a bit of bit extra after you eat, for instance.

Nicely, that’s as a result of an important story all the time begins with an important define. And also you’ve most likely heard the saying that failing to plan is planning to fail.
(10:04)
And I like that reminder, however I additionally don’t assume that any of us actually got down to fail , proper? We don’t imply to not have a plan, it’s simply that we don’t typically get a possibility like this to take a seat down and simply write down an overview. And that’s precisely why we’re right here doing this. And I don’t need you to lose this momentum that January and the brand new yr actually brings. I would like you to simply step into February with a plan in place and simply actually able to rock. And so I would like you as soon as once more to both take inspiration from my little sheet right here on this worksheet about the way you wish to really feel coming into February.

So there’s just a few few concepts and, and you’ll write your individual or you’ll be able to take some inspiration from what I’ve added for you. Be happy. After which in fact, our subsequent factor to do is to write down down our train plan for February. And so for me, in my January train plan, I wrote down the Quick abs and Booty problem, which is certainly one of our challenges in rock your life. So in February I’m gonna write down the Quick Abs and Booty Problem half two as a result of I do quite a lot of like half one, half two, and there’s the sequel to the problem that you’ve got and there, and there’s all these enjoyable progressions that you are able to do due to course our physique adapts to the load that we give it and we wanna proceed to problem ourselves.

We’ve, uh, tools that you simply discover in a gymnasium or issues like barbells and heavier tools you probably have a storage gymnasium otherwise you wanna take it to the gymnasium.

And it’s not like there’s, that’s flawed to have a few of these meals, however you probably have a base of protein, then that’ll identical to give your your mind among the amino acids it wants.
