SAMPLE GOALS:
Goal-setting is a popular motivational technique. It’s important to set goals
and reward yourself when initiating a new exercise program because
you’re attempting to break current patterns and form a new habit. Whether
you use this technique or another, make fitness a priority in your life. You
can achieve the ultimate reward to yourself: you can establish the exercise
habit!
Some sample goals may be:
•To strengthen my heart by exercising 24 minutes three days
a week.
(Goal Measurement: Exercise Time=72 minutes a week).
•To improve my body’s ability to burn fat by exercising at a low
intensity for 48 minutes per day, 5 days a week.
(Goal Measurement: Exercise Time=240 minutes per week).
•To burn off work related stress by exercising for 20 minutes a
day on work days.
(Goal Measurement: Exercise Time=100 minutes per week).
KEEPING AN EXERCISE DIARY

you can look back and see how far you’ve come.
