Goal Setting and 2026

As we head toward 2026, even thinking about goals can feel overwhelming, sometimes more overwhelming than actually doing the work. Coach Rusty and Nel sit down to talk honestly about the pressure that comes with New Year’s resolutions and why so many of them don’t stick. Together, they unpack what it really takes to build healthy habits that last, focusing on long-term change instead of quick fixes. They dive into the mindset behind dieting, why support and accountability matter, and how small, realistic steps can make a big difference. Most importantly, they encourage creating a plan that actually fits your life, your routines, preferences, and challenges, so health and wellness feel achievable, not exhausting.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Name Evolution05:57 New Year Resolutions and Goal Setting11:59 The Importance of Sustainable Change17:55 Personal Experiences with Dieting and Body Image23:59 Commitment to Change and New Habits25:50 Identifying What Works for You28:57 Evaluating Habits and Their Importance35:39 Establishing Forever Habits37:04 Understanding the Importance of Simplicity41:49 Creating Sustainable Goals46:38 Making Commitments Instead of ResolutionsJoin Our Fitness CommunityIf you're ready to receive truly tailored to YOU 1 on 1 coaching that focuses on more than just the workouts and nutrition, fill out our coaching form ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Want to workout with ME on my app (A 3 day FREE Trial) ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mobility ebook ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Rusty⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Instagram⁠Follow ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Nel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on InstagramGet 15% off my favourite protein powder ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
