I'd like to try new things. I tend to stick with my cycling because I like it and it's easy. So I think that my goal is to try six new things in 2012.
Belly dancing, folk dancing, tap, hip-hop, flamenco, hula, yoga, tai chi, pilates, boxing, kickboxing, swimming, aqua aerobics, ice skating, akido, Kuk Sool Won, jazzercise, zumba, bokada, dancefit, body sculpting, step aerobics, .. heck, my city offers a class in fitness jump roping.
I can find one new thing to try every other month, and give it a good fair trial.
In January I'm starting JMs ripped in 30 and when I finish that, her six week six pack and then incorporate free weights and mini stepper everyday. Oh and 100 kettle bell swings a day.
I want to get back up to one hour of hill intervals at level 15 on the elliptical, leg pressing 200+ pounds, doing a bajillion incline crunches, and generally being fit.
I love the goals that are about trying something new. I think it is so important to get out of our comfort zones to keep challenging our bodies and learning!
My biggest fitness goal for 2012 is to stick with my workouts, even though I'm moving and will have absolutely no access to any kind of gym or equipment. I'm trying figure out how to work all the major muscle groups with bodyweight exercises and resistance tubing.
I'm also pretty in love with Les Mills fitness classes and seriously take 7 or 8 of them a week (things like BodyPump, BodyCombat, RPM (cycling), etc.). I love the energy and intensity in those classes and I never have to think twice about getting my workouts in. I definitely work harder and push further in those classes than I do when I'm on my own. So my second goal is to bring that same energy and intensity to my workouts when I'm doing it by myself and learn to enjoy my workouts without the Les Mills magic.
I joined a 30 day fitness bootcamp. I've completed my first 30 days (Nov-Dec) and I've enjoyed it so much that I'm continuing through the new year. This is the first time that I can honestly say that I have enjoyed exercising.
I just joined a fitness center and my goals are to get more than my money's worth from there. I will lifet weights 3 ties a week and go for cardio a couple of more times along with doing some workout dvds here at home.
I want to become a runner. I started doing my own little C25K plan in September. Life got in the way and I stopped for a few months, but I just started back up this past week. I really want to work on building up my endurance and hopefully by the end of the year I'll be a running machine. Giving myself a goal in miles is probably a good idea. Maybe 1000.
I also want to start seriously focusing on strength training. I've been doing very little, but now that I'm getting close to a more normal size I want to really start toning everything up. I don't want to reach my goal weight looking like a potato. =)
My goal for 2012 is to continue on working out and hopefully toning my body all around. I just started weight training in August so I hope to continue doing this for the next year.
My weight right now is 136 (standing at 5'5") so I hope to stay around this area or maybe go down a few pounds.
