TRACK YOUR PROGRESS AND RESULTS
We see ourselves everyday and sometimes the progress we make is not always as obvious to us as it is to other people.
Have you ever been complimented on losing weight when you don’t actually feel like you’ve lost any?
Tracking your progress is CRUCIAL for motivation. It will allow you to SEE the results, even if sometimes losing an inch here or there may not seem like such a big deal.
But that inch hasn’t just been lost from your waist, it’s been replaced with muscle and it has allowed you to get stronger and feel better for it!
It’s also key to taking accountability for your actions. You can tell yourself that you’re going to work out 5 times this week every Monday morning, but how many times do we break our promises to ourselves?
By tracking your progress and results, you’re holding yourself accountable for them. No one is going to lose the pounds for you or make your butt look perkier for you.
This is something you have to do for yourself. Tracking helps you visualize how you’re going to get there.
There are a few ways I like to track my progress and results.
