No Man is an Island

Does this sound familiar? "I'll start on Monday." "I'll get started October 1st" "2009 will be the year I really get in shape." As a fitness coach, I hear these comments all the time being thrown around the gym. The truth of the matter is that although people may start "on monday" most likely they will quit in less than 3 weeks. The root of this problem isn't because they don't want to do it, it's because they take on Fitness alone.

Study after study has shown that individuals that have workout partners or meet with personal trainers are far more likely to succeed and stay fit then those that go it alone. Actually a recent study proves this once again.

"Researchers at the world famous Karolinska Institute wanted to findout why some men and women succeed at weight loss while others don't. They studied many men and women using an Internet Weight Loss Club,and found that the people who used the site the MOST also LOST the most weight. That means that going online for social support in your weight loss program is one of the most IMPORTANT things you can do."

The exciting thing is the study proves that even an online community or trainer can give you the support you need to succeed. Fit Church members know that Community is one of the Pillars of our program. We need to have community to keep us accountable, cheer us on and give us direction. Without community we are swimming upstream.
