JOIN US AT PEACHTREE BECOME A GYM MEMBER THE GYM WHERE YOU FIT IN S E T T I N G G OA L S : SEC R E TS TO S U CC ESS Ready to reach your fitness goals? Emily Duval Ledger, a certified personal trainer though the American Council on Exercise (ACE), shares a few tactics to help you achieve and maintain the body you want. Write it down! The easiest goals to achieve are those that are clearly defined. Start by setting a goal that is challenging to meet, but not impossible, and answer these questions: 1. W hat is your goal? When do you want to reach it? Setting a realistic time frame is a positive motivator. 2. W hat are you willing to do to achieve it? What are you willing to give up? 3. Who can help you? Who may be a challenge? Be specific! Writing it down helps clarify what you are really after, and keeping it in a visible place can be great motivation to stick with it. For example, if you are looking to slim down and lose fat, build some lean muscle, take your measurements, record your goals. Often, it is ourselves – not outside obstacles that stand in the way of our goals. To combat these personal “roadblocks,” create a plan for yourself that encourages positive behavior and keeps you on track. Become a member of The Gym at Peachtree-The GYM WHERE YOU FIT IN!

By improving the brain’s executive function, we force the brain to give the mind a workout to strengthen the cognitive muscles.

If we want to feel younger even into our 80s and 90s, we need six days a week of physical exercise.
