January Challenge: 35,000 Calories Burned in January and Why Arbitrary Goals May Be Hurting You
I did it! I hit the Apple Watch fitness tracker 35,000 calories burned challenge in the Month of January. But what does it mean? Well nothing really because I didn’t set the goal and I wasn’t really trying to achieve it either. I just did it. Even though that’s a lot of calories in a month and it means consistent training, if it doesn’t fit in to your overall plan, it really may be setting you up for disaster and disappointment down the line. Let’s say you jumped on the “I want to run 2020 miles in the year 2020” bandwagon. If running 39 miles a week, every week for 52 weeks doesn’t fit into your overall plan, then why try to accomplish it. Sometimes we get enticed by what others are doing and we think we either need to do the same or worse, need to do more without taking into consideration what effect it will have on our long term training. I encourage you to have a plan, stay consistent and only change the plan if you are not currently seeing desired results. As always I appreciate you listening and if you need me, please few free to reach out by email brian@company5k.com. Until next time...
