The most common accountability mechanism that comes to mind when we think about personal growth in fitness is a workout partner. But there are other ways to approach accountability in fitness too. I know folks who think all they need to do is lift weights to ensure a healthy and long life. But there’s more to it than that… There’s cardio, stretching, etc. So, perhaps a trainer or an exercise plan where you can track your progress can be helpful. For me, another way to stay accountable is to mark off progress as I go. I’ve done this in the past through an online fitness tracker, or app, and now I use my Garmin watch to track my activity, stretching, and sleep. Whatever you do, consider some type of accountability mechanism for growth in fitness.
