Some Cool New Goals That Have Been Set Posted by Andy Thu, 04 Sep 2008 04:10:00 GMT

There are some really cool new goals being set on the site so I thought I would mention a few of them and highlight why the are great goals;

1. No caffeine – In the ‘rules of goals’ the one bad thing about this goal is that it is written in the negative instead of the positive. Other then this it is very clear and measureable. By cutting out the unnecessary daily routine that is caffeine you start to become more thoughtful of your health every time you resist a coffee or tea.

2. Replace oven Chips with Veges – Setting yourself small nutrition based goals like this are a far more effective way to improve your nutrition in comparison to those drastic diets that can never be maintained.

3. Walk in the rain – In the broader sense, this goal is all about knocking those lame excuses as to why you cant exercise on the head and just getting out there any doing it (at least that’s my take on Spunkrats goal but he may be just basing the goal on the joy of walking in the rain).

4. Drop 1 dress size – This goal is fantastic in that it is very achievable, completely measurable and there is huge reward when the goal is achieved. Awesome!

5. Paint my house – Setting an activity based goal that also doubles up as a round the house/flat chore is a brilliant way to get yourself thinking about the health benefits of typical daily activities. It also makes the chore more enjoyable because you are thinking about the health benefit you are achieving while you are doing it.
