Start Prioritizing Your Health

You know that feeling, right? It's mid-December, you're already thinking about January 1st, and there's this little voice in your head saying "This time will be different." But here's the thing... if you're waiting until January 1st to start thinking about your fitness goals, you're already behind. The most successful people I work with at EA Fitness & Performance don't wait for the calendar to flip. They use December as their secret weapon to set themselves up for a January that actually sticks. Why Most January Fitness Plans Fail (And How You'll Be Different) Let's be honest - January 2nd rolls around, and suddenly every gym in Portland is packed with people who made the same resolution. By February? Crickets. The problem isn't lack of motivation. It's lack of preparation. You're juggling work deadlines, family responsibilities, and the general chaos of being a busy professional or parent over 40. The last thing you need is to wing it when it comes to your health and fitness. That's where the January Jumpstart mindset comes in - and it starts NOW.

December hits different, doesn't it? Between cookie exchanges, shopping marathons, and family gatherings, your usual fitness routine probably feels like a distant memory. But here's the thing – you don't need to choose between staying connected with your community and maintaining your health.  The holidays are actually the perfect time to try something new: community-based workouts that bring people together while keeping everyone active. No more solo gym sessions that you keep skipping. No more guilt about missing workouts because you chose family time instead. Let's flip the script on holiday fitness. These 7 quick community workouts will help you stay strong, energized, and connected – all at the same time.
