Almost 59 percent of people who make resolutions say their goal is to exercise more this year. To boost your chances of success in 2019, Brandon Alderman, an expert in exercise psychology, has some unique and practical advice: Start by just putting on exercise clothes when you get home from work.
Once you’ve got those biking shorts, running shoes or yoga pants on, you might as well do a workout. It’s a strategy Alderman uses himself. He recommended setting a goal of putting your exercise clothes on least three days a week for three months as a start. |

| Even when we know people’s names, why do we go for days without using them? By using someone’s name, you help them feel seen and acknowledged — and that’s an act of kindness. According to kindness.org’s research in collaboration with the University of Oxford, doing a kind act increases happiness, well-being, trust and compassion. And it can have the same powerful effect on those who receive the act. Try it, and put a smile on both your faces. |

Ready to start a new fitness routine in 2019, but have no idea where to start? No problem. For this low-key resolution, commit to ONE workout per week. Do you have a gym membership that you never use? Hit the gym for one class or one workout each week. Instead of gunning for three, four or five workouts per week, start gradually and just commit to one workout per week.
The key is to really stick to it. Make it an appointment on your calendar, and tell yourself that it's non-negotiable. |
