Can’t stay consistent? Try this…

What do the world’s greatest athletes, authors, artists, and other successful people have in common?

‍

They know the power of consistency.

‍

They put in their reps, they hit their word counts, and they show up on days when they’d rather stay in bed…

‍

Rain or shine.

‍

Even the longest books get written one word at a time!

‍

Now, even if you’re not trying to set a world record…

‍

Consistency is EVERYTHING when it comes to building healthy habits.

‍

Yes, everyone has “off” days…

‍

But studies show that if you can stay consistent with a habit for around 60 days, you’re much more likely to keep it.

‍

Our recommendation?

‍

If you have a hard time sticking to new habits…

‍

Start pairing them with habits you already have and enjoy.

‍

This is called “habit stacking”, and it can look like:

‍

  • Pairing your morning walk with a cup of coffee
  • Doing quick shoulder rolls while you’re sitting at a stoplight in the car
  • Holding a lunge or balance pose while you’re waiting for tea to boil


Or even performing a few seated twists or foam rolling while you’re catching up on your favorite show!

‍

This makes it SO much easier to build and keep these new habits…

‍

And you can apply it to just about anything!

‍

Still, I know it’s easier said than done…

‍

So it’s okay to start small.

‍

For example, if you know you want to add a few mobility exercises to your daily routine, start with just 2-3 times per week.

‍

Once that feels easy, bump up the number of days until it becomes a daily habit.

It’s better to go slow and make it sustainable!
