Want To Win At Your 2023 Resolutions? Blink Fitness Says To Break Them Down Into Micro-goals And Celebrate Each Tiny Win

Blink Fitness Certified Personal Trainers Offer Tips To Get Started!

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- This year Blink Fitness wants you to think about your resolutions differently, in a way that will help you succeed. How? By setting micro-goals, encouraging small and attainable steps, and celebrating every small accomplishment. Your resolution might be to run a 5k but you can start by walking around the block. Break down your resolutions into tiny wins. Each accomplishment shows progress, and a tiny win is a win in a Blink.

"The start of a new year is a natural time to evaluate how we want to change or improve our lives," said Ellen Thompson, Personal Training Manager for Blink Fitness. "Working out is generally the most popular resolution, but success is more about being intentional and making a practical plan to incorporate fitness into each week. The word resolution has lost its impact because it's not about a simple declarative statement - real change requires doing some upfront work to set yourself up for success and then making consistent progress towards the end goal."

Blink Fitness recently polled its certified personal trainers across the country to identify the top tips that really work for achieving tiny wins and sustaining a fitness routine.

• Be Realistic, Start Tiny. You are unlikely to go from not working out at all to working out 5 days a week. Starting with small steps is a great way to build sustainable lifestyle changes. You can start by committing to as little as 1-3 days of going for a brisk walk for 20-30 minutes. Once physical activity becomes routine and you start to feel the benefits in mood, energy and tone, the next step is getting to the gym. For example, commit to coming to the gym 1-2 days a week for just 15 mins to start. Jonathan Cheuk, BS in Kinesiology CPT, Blink Fitness Houston
• Get Help at the Start. One of the best ways to get started is to get some early support on technique and how to build on your initial program over time. Many gyms offer personal training sessions (look for ones that offer certified trainers), including all Blink Fitness locations where you get a free certified personal training start-up session with every new membership. Your personal trainer will create a workout program, suited to your fitness level, that you can build on with each tiny win. 89% of Blink's current members who use personal training report being motivated by their personal training sessions. Rudy Conriquez, ISSA CPT, Blink Fitness California
• Never Miss a Monday. Timing matters! If your schedule allows, committing to a Monday workout is ideal as it helps get your week off to a strong, healthy start and it creates natural momentum to accomplish your remaining workouts that week. You check off a tiny win at the start of your week and set positive intentions. Giá Dorries, BPE, NASM, PFTA CPT, Blink Fitness Dallas/Fort Worth
• Find a Partner. Some call this accountability, and for others - it's just more fun! Having a partner doesn't mean you have to go to the gym together all the time, but having someone that you have made a commitment with, checking in and encouraging each other can provide an added motivation boost. Accomplish your tiny wins together! Ronny Garcia, ISSA CPT, Blink Fitness Long Island
• Celebrate. Starting a fitness routine doesn't have to mean sacrificing indulgences! Treat yourself to something you love for each tiny win that you accomplish. Tyrel Edwards, NASM CPT, Blink Fitness Philadelphia
