Do not have grand expectations for how you will look or how you will feel.
That may sound harsh, but trying to do too much at once is a huge way to end up giving up.
You can’t run a marathon without first running a 5k.
You can’t grow your legs, arms, and back like your physique idols in just a year when bodybuilders have been lifting and eating for it for many many years.
But,
You CAN try to go to the gym a couple times a week.
You CAN go on a run a couple mornings.
You CAN grab the weights for the first time.
You CAN swap one of your fast food meals for a home cooked one.
It will become a habit. But habits are not formed overnight. It’s SMALL CONSISTENT steps that will lead to HUGE change.
When I made my resolution in 2014, I ran 3 times a week. I gradually added in strength training. My runs got longer, my lifting became more common, and I was able to do more and more. Now, I lift 5-6 days a week and my physique is where it is due to every step I took. Not one way is better than another. Whatever YOU like right now is what will make you successful down the road.
