New Year's Resolutions?  



We all hear the word New Year’s Resolution but it may surprise you to find that only about 32% or Americans are likely to make New Year’s resolutions in 2012, down from last year… And more than 60% of those feel they will break their resolutions sometime during the year…  

The end of the 2012 is quickly approaching…It's time to dust off the list of goals you made this year and see how many you were actually able to accomplish… Was it a good year?  Did you accomplish a lot of your goals? Not as many as you wanted?  Will you redo your goal list for next year to include the ones you didn't get done this year? Didn't make a list to begin with?    

As it is written:
“If you don’t plan to succeed, you plan to fail.” 
Make sure you "plan to succeed" in the new year!!!


Among the top resolutions are weight loss, exercise, stopping smoking, better money management and debt reduction and not necessarily in that order.

Regardless of whether or not you make a resolution for  the New Year, In the back of the minds of 75% of the US and probably most other countries is the pursuit of becoming healthier.  

Therefore,  I’m sending this blog installment to you early so you can get a head start before the new year is upon us…

In this installment I will simply state reasons why weight lifting is vital and why weight lifting should be added to our weekly schedule for greater health...
