It's almost time!! The Annual Thanksgiving Workout!!

Instructions: For everything you eat during your Thanksgiving meal, you need to perform the specified exercise. If you have multiple servings of a certain food, add another set of that exercise. If you have food that isn't on the list, pick an item on the list that most closely matches it.

Happy New Year to all!

For those who don't know, I have committed to doing 100 pushups every day all year (on top of my normal workouts) to accomplish the 36,500 Pushups Achievement .

Although goals like this can be awesome, did you know that you DON'T have to create super lofty goals in order to grow and improve yourself?

Can you achieve success and improvement even if you forget a day or are less than the perfect?

The answer is YES!

Setting a goal and striving for it will still yield results, even if you "fail" by coming short of the mark you set for yourself. The most important thing is to be okay with imperfections and not give up.

Count the days you SUCCEED, not the days you fail!

What will you do with your new year?
