Monday Check in

Happy Monday!

Motivation around the gym has been high lately. New people are starting, new goals are forming, and some of you already have your eyes on what to do in 2026.

And 2026 is right around the corner.

If you’re feeling motivated and productive - ride the wave. On the flip side, if you’re not feeling super motivated, that’s okay too.

With just 6 weeks remaining in the year, we all know it’s about to get busy with holidays, traveling, parties and everything else that pulls you out of your routine.

That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t start something new, but if you do, you need to build in some flexibility to navigate these busy times.

The thing to avoid: starting something new and biting off more than you can chew. You’ll fizzle out in early December only to, “start over,” in the New Year.

Keep this James Clear quote in mind:

“When determining the size or complexity of a new habit ask yourself, “What can I stick to—even on my worst day?”

Start small and stay consistent!
