We’ve all heard it before, “With the New Year comes a new YOU!” It’s an age-old tradition to start the new year off with a few New Year’s Resolutions. The idea of these resolutions is to challenge yourself to be better than you were the year before. They can range from mental and mindset changes to more physical ones. One of the most common resolutions is “I want to work out more.” Here at Titan Fitness, we are all for that! And if your New Year’s Resolution is similar to that, we have just the thing to help you get started. We met with one of our top personal trainers to put together a 6-week fitness challenge that will help you get started on your resolution journey.
