Fitness Goal Setting
A very important aspect of designing your personalized fitness plan is to set fitness goals. The goals that you
establish should take into account your current fitness levels as well as where you want your fitness levels to
be. Well written goals will drive your activity selection and FITT formula.
Use “SMART” criteria to set your fitness goals:
SPECIFIC: What do you want to achieve? How will you achieve it? Why is it important to you?
MEASUREABLE: Establish how to measure your success. Actual numbers, target dates, or specific events.
ACHIEVEABLE: Your goals should push you past your comfort point but should still be do-able.
RELEVANT: Your goals should be important to you and the outcome should impact your life.
TIMELY: Your goals should have a time element established. This helps you keep on track.
