To pledge oneself
According to the mother of three and founder of the fitness application, “It’s That Simple,” committing to yourself is just as important as the steps you will take on your journey.
Be responsible
Sacerdoti believes it’s important to tell a few close people about your intentions and keep them posted so they can cheer you on.
Document your trip
There is no greater motivator than seeing how you change, be it physically or as you build strength and endurance. Stay on top of things by taking photos and recording your workouts.
Small steps
Start with small steps that you may build on. “Even if it’s just a short walk on the first day, encourage yourself to do more on the second day,” Sacerdoti said.
Get rid of the all or nothing attitude
“Reminding yourself that something is always better than nothing and that way you relieve the pressure and fear of failure,” said the fitness enthusiast.
Choose workouts wisely
Have fun and find something sustainable so that it never becomes a chore. “You are guaranteed to end on a climax,” she added.
