Sam Wood on setting fitness goals you’ll actually keep

GOALS! Have you got a few jotted down? Do you actually hit them? Sometimes? Thought so. Setting goals is linked to self-confidence, autonomy and motivation. It’s so easy to set them, yet many of us suck at achieving them.    Sam Wood is a one of Australia's top health and fitness experts and the brains, alongside his wife, Snez, behind the hugely successful online training platform 28 by Sam Wood. As well as juggling being a father to three girls, he runs a personal training studio, The Woodshed, in Melbourne, and he’s the financial wellbeing trainer of ANZ’s Financial Wellbeing Challenge.   In this episode, Sam gets real about goal-setting and talks about its importance, how to set micro and macro goals, and the biggest trap people make when setting goals - not just in fitness, but other areas, too - and how to overcome it.    WANT MORE FROM SAM WOOD?   To hear today's full interview, where Sam talks about the one life goal he’s been most proud of and how he juggles his businesses with fatherhood...search for Extra Healthy-ish wherever you get your pods.    Find out more about Sam Wood on Instagram @samjameswood or check out his program 28 By Sam Wood, here.    WANT MORE BODY + SOUL?    Online: Head to bodyandsoul.com.au for your daily digital dose of health and wellness.   On social: Via Instagram at @bodyandsoul_au or Facebook.
