I have committed to walking outdoors every day in the month of January. This goal has pushed me out of my comfort zone (literally!); I have faced challenges such as cold weather, wind, darkness, illness, busy schedules and travel & yet I have stayed committed to my goal. If I can do this every day in January, you, too , can take a step towards your goals.

Mobility exercises are movements that help your body move more freely and easily. They focus on improving your joints’ range of motion and how well your muscles work together during movement. Unlike stretching, which focuses mainly on lengthening a muscle, mobility exercises also work on strength and control in those movements. These exercises make daily activities, workouts, and even walking feel smoother and less stiff, while reducing the risk of injury.•Examples: Think of things like rotating your shoulders, bending and twisting your spine, or shifting your hips to loosen them up.”Mobility exercises are important for women over age 40.

I often get asked for specific exercises to help women spot reduce fat from their problem areas. I wish I had a magic wand to help them do this! The truth is- there is no magic wand! You can't spot reduce. Fat loss in these areas requires systemic fat loss which requires a calorie reduction. Fat loss is aided by lifting weights consistently & consuming adequate protein."The reason it's taking so long is because you are in a rush. Big things don't happen on small timelines."Join us in the Inspire Fitness program: Use the link here:https://inspirehw.com/Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fit.nutritionist?igsh=MTJqZXhjODR2ZzduaA%3D%3D&utm_source=qrFollow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Casey.Young.RD.CPT?mibextid=LQQJ4d

Set the tone for an amazing week ahead by committing to small, intentional actions that bring you closer to your goals.What will YOU commit to this week?Take a moment to reflect on your goals, whether they’re fitness, nutrition, mindset, or personal development, and think about what you can do in the next 7 days to move the needle forward.Here’s how to make your intentions count:Make Them SMART ✔️ Specific: Clearly define what you’re going to do. (e.g., “I will drink 8 glasses of water daily” instead of “I’ll drink more water.”)✔️ Measurable: How will you track your progress? (e.g., Write down your daily steps or meals in a journal.)✔️ Attainable & Action-Based: Focus on actions you can realistically take. (e.g., “I’ll do 3 strength workouts this week” instead of “I’ll lose 5 pounds.”)✔️ Realistic: Be honest about what fits into your lifestyle. (e.g., A 10-minute workout is better than none at all.)✔️ Time-Bound: Set a deadline—this week! (e.g., “I’ll complete my workouts by Saturday.”)"Focus on the BEHAVIORS, the RESULTS will come."Join us in the Inspire Fitness program: Use the link here:https://inspirehw.com/Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fit.nutritionist?igsh=MTJqZXhjODR2ZzduaA%3D%3D&utm_source=qrFollow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Casey.Young.RD.CPT?mibextid=LQQJ4d
