Setting your own target

I came across an article in the Net and find it very useful. Just to share here.

http://www.fitnesstipsforeveryone.com/setting-fitness-goals/

Setting short term fitness goals
- Lose 10 pounds in 2 months
- Cut out the greasy , fried, fast food
- Improve my appearance so I feel more confident
- Tighten up my body
- Define my muscles

Setting long term fitness goals
- Become healthier for my family and loved ones
- Be able to run 5 miles without feeling like I’m going to die
- Be able to play with my children without getting exhausted
- Lower my blood pressure
- Improve my self confidence
- Get those six pack abs I’ve always wanted
- Be able to go to the beach without feeling insecure about my appearance

Everyone should have such a target to carry them forward for a healthier and better self.
