SMART Goals

Starting Monday, June 14th, I will begin a HOBY plan of SMART Goals. SMART Goals refer to the following acronym:

S - Specific
M - Measurable
A - Action-oriented
R - Realistic
T - Time-based

The following statement is based on the acronym listed.

I will weigh 225 pounds on May 1st, 2011. I will be able to measure my success by losing an average of six pounds a month. I plan to achieve this goal by using the following work out formula:

Monday - Couch to 5k running program with a bike ride to school and back.
Tuesday - Aerobics exercise accompanied with weight training and bike ride to school and back.
Wednesday - Couch to 5k running program and bike ride to school and back.
Thursday - Aerobics exercise accompanied with weight training and bike ride to school and back.
Friday - Couch to 5k running program and Wii yoga training
Saturday - Swimming and/ or interval training.

Since several people have lost more than two hundred pounds within six months, I feel that losing less than half of that over twice the time is realistic.

Let's pray this works this time.
