The Breathe First and Get Moving Challenge, Prep Day 3: Get Your Gear and Prep Your Environment


So...starting Monday, we are going to challenge ourselves to MOVE every day for 10 days in a row--no excuses! In order to ensure success, we're taking a few days to prep our mind and our environment....


Okay, so you already wrote down your WHYS and your HOWS…GREAT!


Now, we gotta make sure that you’ve got everything you need to jump right into it on Monday.


So time for Prep Step 3:  Get Your Gear and Prep Your Environment


  1. Schedule your workout time on your calendar and set an alarm. 
  2. If you’re doing a program online, make sure you’re signed up and have bookmarked the page or set up the app.
  3. If you’re taking a class in person or going to the gym for your workout…make sure you’re signed up and that you have full access.  Put the location in google maps and find out if you’ll be hitting traffic at your ETD.  Give yourself extra time to find a parking spot and to put your stuff in your locker.  Time it accordingly!  No excuse to be late!
  4. If you’re working out at home, make sure there is a space available in which you won’t be interrupted by family, or distracted by messes, projects, or work.
  5. If you’re planning to do something that requires equipment, make sure it’s ready–you’ve got your hiking boots, your bike tires are pumped up, your stopwatch is available, you’ve got a lock for your locker, your towel is packed, your water bottle is ready, your yoga mat is out, your “outfit” is planned and in your gym bag…whatever it is, prep it the night before. NO excuses!


OK…if all that is done, you’re good to go!  Yahoo!


LET'S DO THIS THING! Tomorrow is DAY 1!!!


PS

If you want to take a peek at MY 10 Day Plan feel free to do so!  Putting my plan out there for the world to see means I’m more likely to GET IT DONE!  Woot!  So if you wanna share YOUR plan…DO IT! 


***Remember, exercise plans should be unique because they’re based on what YOU want to accomplish, YOUR starting fitness level and contraindications, YOUR likes/dislikes, and YOUR schedule!  Start where you are.  Use what you got.  Do what you can.  You got this!


***Now go on with your bad self and crush this thing!
