How To Stay On Track With Your New Year's Resolutions

Did you know that over 70% of New Year’s resolutions are health & fitness related… yet 92% of us officially give up on our goals by February 1st?! But never fear, NH gang - keeping the momentum going has never been easier with the help of our natural supplements!

Mel's Tip - Slow Down & Meditate

Meditation is a great tool that aids in slowing down the mind, body, and bringing your focus to one thing at a time - such as the resolution you’re striving to achieve! I love practising meditation before bed by using the Headspace app & unwinding with our Rocky Road Moon Mylk. Moon Mylk is a paramount part of my nighttime routine as it helps calm both my mind and nervous system - not to mention it puts me to sleep in minutes!

Kate's tip - Prioritise Rest & Recovery

Becoming more active & fit has forever been a new year’s resolution of mine. When I first began my fitness journey, I used to train 7 days a week, ignore my body’s needs, and almost wear my muscle fatigue and exhaustion as a badge of honour. Improper recovery not only negatively impacts our motivation and stalls progress, but can also lead to hormonal upset, anxiety, irritability. It’s no wonder why I’d constantly give up my fitness journey as quickly as I started! 

I’ve now made our Mango Pineapple BCAA + Hydration a permanent addition to my everyday diet to give it the hydration and healing properties it needs. It’s completely transformed how I feel both during & after my workout! I also love to switch up my daily movement to a LISS-focussed training session whenever I start to feel muscle fatigue, such as walking on the office treadmill while I smash out my content planning. Incorporating rest & recovery through the use of BCAAs & LISS training has helped me train harder and longer, enhanced my confidence, and see the best results I’ve ever seen. So gang, NEVER underestimate the importance of rest & recovery - it will help you stay motivated and achieve your goals in the long run.

Brooke's Tip - Create Accountability

Although your goals are personal, it doesn’t mean achieving them has to be a one woman show. Whether it’s your gym bestie keeping your exercise resolution on track, or your partner assisting with healthier eating choices - resolutions are proven to be better kept with our biggest cheerleaders by our side keeping us motivated and accountable.

NH Bundles are a great way of tackling your health & fitness goals with a friend. My gym bestie & I started off the year strong together by purchasing our NH Cookies & Cream & Chocolate Swirl Protein Bundle and we love it!

Mik's Tip - Make exercising fun!

Let’s face it - you’re probably not sticking to the health & fitness goals you set out on January 1st because you simply don’t enjoy them. In 2023, we’re saying no to over-exercising, strict diet regimes & intensive workouts that we end up dreading. Let yourself enjoy exercising by making it more engaging and fun - think outside the box, try new things, and find what works for you - there are a myriad of exercise options available out there that don’t just involve weights & a treadmill!

I love to add an extra layer of fun to my workouts by taking our Fruit Tingle Natural Pre-Workout before I exercise. Not only does it energise me with a natural energy boost, but it actually excites me for my workout ahead. Not to mention it’s DELICIOUS and takes me right back to my childhood! You can explore our large array of fun pre-workout flavours to suit your individual taste here.

We hope these tips help you stay on track with your ‘new year, new me’ mantra. And remember - practice patience & forgiveness with yourself. On average, it takes 66 days to form a new habit - so if you feel like your results aren’t yielding as soon as you expected or you slip up, don’t beat yourself up. Take a deep breath, forgive yourself, & acknowledge that no one is perfect - our health & fitness journeys aren’t linear.

You’ve got this, gang - let’s smash our 2023 goals together! 💪
