When it comes to goal setting for the new year—specifically in the area of fitness and nutrition—we’ve found there are a few major challenges our clients deal with:
- They set goals they don’t actually care about
- They set arbitrary goals instead of educated goals

The resources below will help you overcome these common goal-setting pitfalls. We’ll help you dig into what is most important to you and set goals based on what actually makes sense for your body and lifestyle.
