S.M.A.R.T. Goals update

 Below are my S.M.A.R.T goals with deadlines, Two of which I achieved and are ready for an update! YAY!
  1. Try out Yoga, Zumba, and Pilates in the next two months (May 22nd 2011) and add one to my fitness routine
  2. Cook a homemade meal once a week for the next two months. (May 22nd 2011) 
  3. 1 hour of Cardio a week in April and 2 hours of Cardio a week in May.
Goal 1:
Over the past two months I've researched Yoga, Zumba, and Pilates. Unfortunately Pilates didn't really fit into my budget, not only are they expensive, the more reasonable studios are located in the Rocklin/Roseville area which would also put a big strain on my gas tank. I'm still going to be on the lookout for groupon/living social deals because this really sounds like something I would enjoy. Zumba doesn't really fit in my schedule, most of the classes I found are right after work, and I have lots of commitments on weeknights so I was only really able to fit it in once a week. Yoga in the other hand is starts at 6:30 M-F which leaves me plenty of time to grab a small bite to eat and get there with plenty of time to spare and I can commit to making it at least twice a week. On top of the awesome schedule I also picked up a $20.00 unlimited month Living Social deal at Yoga Loka! I started on Tuesday and my first Bikram session was intense, I don't think I've ever sweat as much as I did on Tuesday. It took a lot more mental strength then physical which I think will complement my normal Boot Camp routine nicely.  

New Goal:  Make time for Yoga at least twice a week for the next month (June22nd)

Goal 2:
I did pretty well on this goal overall, missing some weeks due to the insane schedule I've had lately. However right now this goal is moot because of the Belly Blast Diet, I'm on for my Get Fit for the 4th challenge, in which all of meals are homemade.

New Goal:  Be fully committed to the Belly Blast Diet thru the challenge (June 29th)

Goal 3:

 This is the goal that I didn't meet at all :( well I still really need to add cardio to my fitness routine, between boot camp and Yoga twice a week that's 6 hours a week that I will be working out. So I'm revising this goal to make it more attainable.

New Goal: Swim for at least 20 minutes on the weekends

I'm a fan of SMART Goals and enjoyed your sharing you SMART Goals for health and fitness. I have a new website and Facebook page on SMART Goals if you would like to check them out: http://www.define-smart-goals.com and http:/www.facebook.com/definesmartgoals .

I've done a lot of research on diets and found the Zone Diet by Dr. Barry Sears to be very healthy. Have you tried that out?
