Hyrox? Half Marathon? Health? Do You Actually Need a Midlife Fitness Goal?

from Honestly, Carly

This week I’m chatting solo about why goal setting can feel a bit icky in midlife… and why, despite that, I’m still a big fan of having one!We’re diving into:Why goals can feel harder after 40The pressure hangover from corporate-style goal settingWhat happens when you don’t have a goal at allWhy “health” on its own is often too vague to motivateThe scattergun trap of copying everyone else’s goalsHow to choose a goal that fits your life, energy and bodyThinking of goals as a North Star, not a straitjacketYou’ll also hear why:“I’m exercising for my long-term health” often makes the brain reply: cool, irrelevant – talk to me in 30 years 😉Health matters hugely, but it’s usually the outcome of consistent action, not the thing that gets you out of bed on a rainy Tuesday and that, is what I'm here to help you with!Want more support?This is exactly the kind of work we do inside The Reboot – my online coaching programme for midlife women.👉 Find out more: The Reboot💖 Drop me a note on Instagram and tell me what your goals look like - you can find me @carlycorrigall
