How do you ensure you actually follow through something? YOU TRACK IT!

I’m huge on tracking all kinds of metrics in my life. Be it in health & fitness, finances, work performance, personal brand, etc.

What we focus on…grows 😃 

And I believe there’s a trick to getting it done day in and day out.

You simply find a tracking mechanism that works best for you and your brain. It could be pen and paper, an app on your phone, placing them throughout your calendar, etc.

Toward the bottom of this newsletter, I’ll share exactly how I track my daily health habits to ensure I hit them each day without fail.

If you missed the recent PDF including all of my health habits, I’ll drop them here:

• 8 hours sleep minimum

  • Melatonin, Magnesium, Blackout curtains

  • Oura ring to track quality & various stats

• Chug 25 ounces of water minimum first thing - then constant hydration throughout day

• Open curtains for natural light to eyes

• Intermittent Fast

  • Have Coffee

• Ankle Rehab During Work (Standing Desk - Occasional Walks During the Day)

  • 3-Way Calf Raises, Roll Out Feet, Ankle Stretches, Mobility

• Lunch – Typically:

  • 2 Cans of Tuna, Greek Yogurt w/ whey protein, peanut butter, berries, banana, Fun Snack 🙂 (Usually Cheezits)

  • Electrolytes & Supplements (Vitamin D3, Multivitamin, Creatine)

• Training 6x / Week Directly After Work

  • Wednesday & Sunday recovery days (rehab, recovery work, ice bath, etc.)

• Post Training

  • Cooldown, Muscle Releases, HyperVolt

  • Ice bath 2-3x / week

• Roots Natural Kitchen Bowl for Dinner

  • Fun fact: I eat it in my car on the way home…it saves time 😅

• Typically no snacking after dinner (unless my body is telling me I absolutely need something)

We all have big goals in 2024…net worth, relationships, career, health & fitness, etc. I will be taking on a few clients for personal training.

For me, I’m incredibly OCD…and what gets me lit up more than anything? The red bubble notifications on my phone.

I need them gone. I can’t have them sitting around on my phone.

I actually turn many notifications off on my phone because of it!

BUT, I use this to my advantage. I utilize the reminders app on my phone to push me notifications at different times throughout the day for when each habit should usually be executed.

This little app right here keeps me logging back in to see where we’re at for the day. It keeps me true, it keeps me honest, it keeps me on track.

Here’s how some of my habits look within the app:

This ensures I come back to the app constantly throughout the day to see what I need to be doing to ensure I continue tracking to my goals.

Brick by brick, we can build a healthy lifestyle for a long, long time.

Hopefully, you take some insight from this system and can begin to implement something of your own moving forward.

Again, it doesn’t have to be so black and white. You just need to find a system that works best for you and stick to it.

Something to keep you true and keep you on track to your goals. So, here’s to the consistency 😁
