Foreword Coach Cj Swaby

So its day four of 2011. Hows your new years resolutions holding out? I can't take credit for this post. It came to me via way of newsletter from Brooks Kubrik of Dinosaur Training (the title is mine though). As the year gets out of the starting blocks into a fully fledged sprint, and your New Years resolutions struggle to keep up, here's two reasons to give them up at the start line in the first place.

2 Reasons To Give Up Your New Years Resolutions

"Most people are busy making New Year’s
resolutions right now. Dinosaurs are busy
planning their workouts.

I don’t believe in resolutions. I do believe in
workouts. And here’s why.

REASON 1:

Resolutions are typically about losing weight,
losing inches or breaking a bad habit. Their
primary purpose is a way of ramping up your
will power to help you stop eating the wrong
kind of food, stop drinking too much, stop
smoking, or whatever.

Workouts are different. They’re not about
dropping something you want or cutting back
on something you enjoy. They’re all about
doing something FUN – hitting the iron!


REASON 2

And the great thing about workouts is this:
if you train regularly and consistently, you
make progress. It’s just that simple.

So if you want to make some resolutions for the
coming year, that’s fine – but be sure to plan
some workouts as well. Workouts make good things
happen."
