Setting Goals for 2012 – Ashton

Posted on: January 17th, 2012 by mark harrop

While we’re not big believers in New Year’s resolutions, we certainly believe in setting yourself goals and challenges. We polled some of our trainers to find out about their goals for 2012. See what challenges lay in store!

We would love to hear what your goals are and remember to check in with us at the studio to make sure we’re working towards ours!

Ashton’s goals

  1. Do more fitness challenges. I took part in the Men’s Health ‘Survival of the Fittest’ challenge in 2010 and would love to do something similar again.
  2. Complete the 3 peaks challenge.
  3. Start to learn a new language – I just haven’t decided which one yet! Any suggestions?

We would love to hear what your goals are and remember to check in with us at the studio to make sure we’re working towards ours!

Lynsey’s Goals

  1. Challenge myself more- perform a fitness test in Jan and work towards getting fitter, stronger and faster!
  2. Start learning a new skill – mountain climbing or martial arts based!
  3. Read more. I aim to read 1 book a month on my new Kindle and this month’s choice is ‘The Power of Now’ by Eckhart Tolle. I’m enjoying it and it certainly makes you think and helps to focus the mind.
  4. And just for fun – to stand on the Swiss ball!

  2. To complete more off road running races, like the Hell Down South that I participated in back in Nov 2010. Anyone up for it?

Setting Goals for 2012 – Miad

Posted on: January 17th, 2012 by mark harrop

While we’re not big believers in New Year’s resolutions, we certainly believe in setting yourself goals and challenges. We polled some of our trainers to find out about their goals for 2012 and we will be sharing these with you over the next few days.

We would love to hear what your goals are and remember to check in with us at the studio to make sure we’re working towards ours!

Miad’s Goals

  1. Take up another sport in addition to the 2 I already play. I love my squash and football but I want to throw in some kind of martial arts? Nothing too serious – just a good workout through a different discipline
  2. Cut down on my one treat – Caramel Lattes from Costa!! To have one every other day rather than every day.
